There are two ways to do these lighthouse letterboxes.



The first is to take two days, rent a bike from Young's Bicycle Shop. Get the Brandt Point and Sankaty Head Lighthouse boxes on the first day, and the Great Point Lighthouse Letterbox on the second day. This involves a great deal of biking and hiking.



The second is to rent a 4 wheel drive jeep from Young's Bicycle Shop, and get all three letterboxes in one day. This involves some great off road soft sand driving.
