If you’re interested in great views with some historical facts thrown in, head to Pilots Hill Lookout. A pilot station was built on the hill in 1860 to help guide ships over the treacherous sandbar and manned for nearly a century.

There is no longer a Pilot Station other than a monument and small cemetery where the graves of some of the pilots and their families lie. It’s worth the walk or drive to admire the view over the breakwall and learn some of Harrington’s early maritime history.
