Is there anywhere you can view this lighthouse from a distance, without doing the tour?

It is a mile inland from the coast but you can get a view of it from the Atlantic on a boat. With binoculars you can view the top from the beaches area and at night you can see the light rotating. Since it is located on the Air Force Station you cannot do a close up view, (unless you have the required security credentials- which requires more than just a military id)
Can kids go on the tour? The Lighthouse website says one must be 48' tall and no age requirement, but trip advisor states no one under 12. Which is it?
A:
The age restriction has been lifted but you must be 48ā tall to climb the first 5 floors of the lighthouse
Are you able to drive to the lighthouse without doing a tour? We would love to do the tour, but are just passing through and unfortunately do not have time.

No, you have to do the tour. Reason is that it is on a military base and they will not let personal vehicles on the base. Even on the tour, you must present a valid US identification such as Driver's license or passport. We wanted to be able to drive there ourselves too, but could not. If you do find time for a tour, it was really awesome and unique as there were many more attractions on it - not just the lighthouse. Hope that helps!
