Wood Island Life Saving Station Tower Live Cam

The Wood Island Life Saving Station Tower and its associated buildings occupy a position of exceptional historical and technical importance along the southern Maine coastline. Located on Wood Island at the mouth of the Piscataqua River, just offshore from Kittery, Maine, the site overlooks one of the most navigationally complex and historically active maritime corridors in New England. Strong tidal currents, submerged ledge systems, heavy fog, and Atlantic storms made this area a frequent scene of shipwrecks, grounding incidents, and maritime emergencies, necessitating a permanent and highly trained lifesaving presence.
