Exploring the AMAZING and HAUNTED Rose Island Lighthouse in Newport Rhode Island on Halloween!

#RoseIslandLighthouse #NewportRhodeIsland #HalloweenExplore
www.jmexplorationsadventurejo...
Sitting regally in the beautiful Narragansett Bay, now sits as a treasure of Rhode Island, just calling to be explored!
Built in 1870, atop a bastion of Fort Hamilton, it was a beacon of light for ships entering the Bay during dark of night and foggy weather. After being decommissioned, it was woefully abandoned and waited patiently for its grand return. In 1984, The Rose Island Lighthouse Foundation was founded to repair, restore and preserve the beauty and history that resides within the lighthouse and surrounding property.
Rose Island is not only home to historic remnants of Revolutionary War bastions and hauntingly mysterious bunkers that hold the secrets of the soldiers that lay sickened within it's bomb proof walls. It has much more than the weathered and worn skeleton of a Naval torpedo station and the magnificence of the lighthouse itself with it's narrow stairwells to the lanthorn where you can feast your eyes on a gorgeous sixth order Fresnel lens that still illuminates Narragansett Bay. It even has a Geocache for all of our geofriends!! Rose Island is also a wildlife refuge for many shoreline birds including herons, egrets, sandpipers, seagulls and....Canadian geese...a great gaggle of geese to be exact. If you come for a visit....and we encourage you with every single ounce of adventure in our exploring hearts to make your way out there...please make sure to watch where you walk during the spring and summer seasons. There is no shortage of goose poo and you will find yourself two stepping around the fowl (see what we did there) droppings with a great amount of skill and resolution.
Our intent, as always, is to inspire you to get out and enjoy this life! We highly recommend that you see for yourself all of the wonder that Rose Island holds!
You can come for a day, a weekend or even stay as an honorary lighthouse keeper for a week! Make sure you plan your stay in advance because this amazing place fills up speedy quick and for good reason! You will have incredibly romantic views of the sunrise and sunset, soft ocean breezes outside of your window and a peaceful serenity that is hard to come by in this day and age. You could even consider leaving your electronic devices at home and if you visit between the months of September through March, you can explore parts of the island that are off limits during nesting season. As adventurers, this is our favorite time to come. Not only could you possibly have the island to yourself, but you will see all of the abandoned beauty and ghostly structures that adorn the entire island.

They say that beauty is in the eye of the beholder. What may seem an eyesore to one person, just might be a beautiful masterpiece to another. There are places beloved by communities and protected in the hearts of those that hold their memories of its tattered hallways and decayed rooms dear. This is the way that we feel when we explore places that have been forgotten by time. Left to rot and decay and only holding the silent whispers of what once was. We know that there are people out there with malicious intent toward these places that we venture into. It saddens us when we see the filth and destruction they leave behind, but we want to make something very clear… We are explorers and lovers of history. We in no way, shape or form condone the criminal activities that take place in the historical decaying places that we document. Social media has brought many of these places to the limelight, but the intention is to show the beauty and mystery of abandonment. Not to invite trouble. Trouble will find its way on its own and to say that the peaceful documentation of these places leads to criminal activity, is mind blowing. We have met so many amazing fellow explorers in our travels and are so thankful and humbled by the positive responses we have received. We know that this type of exploration is not for everyone…many people don’t understand why we find such beauty in decay, we can only explain it as a beautiful journey into the past. We invite you to watch our explores and come along as we visit these amazing places. As for the criminal activity that occurs, those individuals are responsible for their own actions. It is a terrible part of our society, but reality, nonetheless. Thank you for taking the time to read this and for loving this location just as much as we do. We hope that through this video, the memories held within will remain.
