The Turkey Point Light, situated at the head of the Chesapeake Bay, is a renowned historic lighthouse. Standing at a modest 35 feet, its elevation atop 100-foot bluffs positions it as the third-highest light off the water in the bay. Notably, it has a significant history of female lightkeepers.

Great destination on a bike, or short walk from the parking lot. Scenic overlook, and places to sit for a spot of lunch. There is a toilet in the parking lot also.
