The lighthouse is best seen from a boat on the river as it sits on private property. The Custom House Maritime Museum in downtown New London offers boat trips and lighthouse tours of this and other lighthouses in the area. From land, the closest views are from Pequot Avenue along the beaches south of the lighthouse. Distant full-length views are best seen from the Avery Point UConn campus in Groton where one can also see New London Ledge Lighthouse in the river and Avery Point lighthouse on campus.

New London Harbor Light is a lighthouse in Connecticut on the west side of the New London harbor entrance. It is the nation's fifth oldest light station and the seventh oldest U.S. lighthouse. It is both the oldest and the tallest lighthouse in Connecticut and on Long Island Sound, with its tower reaching 90 feet. The light is visible for 15 miles. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990. It is currently owned and maintained by the New London Maritime Society as part of the National Historic Lighthouse Preservation Act program. New London Harbor Light is located in New London, off Pequot Avenue. In addition to the lighthouse, the station included the keeper's house which is now a personal residence, a small two-story brick residence. The property once also included a barn, an oil house, and an engine room; all of these structures have been removed.
