楠塔基特岛 楠塔基特岛大点灯塔 楠塔基特岛（Nantucket）是约12,000人的小岛。但是，冒险前往由狭窄的沙嘴组成的北部沙地，只能通过4x4车辆进入，在通往这座历史悠久且仍然非常重要的灯塔的途中，您可能不会遇到很多人。
岛上最北端的“大角灯”的起源可以追溯到1784年，当时楠塔基特（Nantucket）举世闻名-并不是因为它出现在无数（通常是笨拙的）油轮上，而是作为美国捕鲸业的中心。赫尔曼·梅尔维尔（Herman Melville）写道，楠塔基特岛捕鲸者曾经控制着全球三分之二的水域，要回到家中，所有这些捕鲸船必须在该岛北岸和附近的科德角之间的危险浅滩上航行。这座灯塔就是解决之道，首先是在1816年烧毁的木塔形式，然后是在1984年被暴风雨推倒的石头版本。目前的结构（部分使用以前的材料建造）于1986年投入使用，自正式运作以来。
英语原文:
Nantucket is the island home of about 12,000 people. But venture to its sandy northern reaches, composed of narrow sand spits and only accessible via 4x4 vehicles, and you might not bump into many folks on your way to this historic—and still very important—lighthouse.The Great Point Light on the island's northernmost tip traces its origin to 1784, a time when Nantucket was world famous—not so much for appearing in countless (often bawdy) limericks, but as the epicenter of the American whaling industry. Herman Melville wrote that Nantucket whalers once controlled two-thirds of the globe's waters, and to get home, all those whaling ships had to navigate the perilous shoals between the island's north shore and nearby Cape Cod. This lighthouse was the solution, first in the form of a wooden tower that burned in 1816, then a stone version toppled by a storm in 1984. The current structure, built partly with materials from the previous one, was dedicated in 1986 and has been in official operation since.
