FEATURED LOCATION: Peck Ledge Lighthouse in Westport, Connecticut

All these movies all have one thing in common: Shutter Island, The Light At The Edge of The World, The Fog, A Very Long Engagement, Breaking The Waves, Final Analysis, Forever Young, Snow Falling On Cedars, Half Light, and Jaws. Can you guess what it is? They were all set and/or filmed in a lighthouse.

Finding a real lighthouse that allows filming is no easy task. Fortunately for filmmakers, Connecticut has an atmospheric and historic lighthouse to offer as a film location. Peck Ledge Lighthouse, also known as Cockenoe Lighthouse, is now available for film and television productions. It's a 'spark-plug' style lighthouse off the coast of Westport, Connecticut, along the northeast end of the Norwalk Islands in Long Island Sound.
