Excellent displays and worth the time to visit each museum building. You can move at your own speed. Family enjoyed climbing the lighthouse. Full review by Paradise682762

I cannot say for sure if a 6 year old could climb, but any person would have to be in excellent shape to do it. My husband and I are in our 60's and we did not dare to try climbing. I would say that it would be rough on this child.
Has anyone visited the St Augustine Lighthouse and Ponce de Leon Lighthouse? If you have any you only have time to do one- which would you recommend? Why? Thank you in advance

Depends on where you are starting from. If you are near Daytona and don't have all day to visit - Ponce might work better (2-3 hours max). Concur St. Aug has LOTS more to do including Castillo de San Marcos. Plus the old town and cathedral are good sights to see.

Benal58, No there is not although we do have an wheel chair lift in our lens exhibit building that will take you up to the second floor observation platform where a mural of the south facing view from the top of the lighthouse is located to provide those with disabilities the opportunity to see what the view is like from the top of the tower. The only lighthouse in the country with an elevator is the Sullivan's Island Lighthouse which is located on the north side of entrance to Charleston Harbor, SC. Unlike the Ponce Inlet Lighthouse which was first activated on November 1, 1887, the Sullivan Island Lighthouse was completed in the 1962, making it one of the nation's most modern lighthouses. Although it has an elevator, Sullivan's Island Lighthouse is not open to the public.
