Lighthouse Digest is a specialty magazine for lighthouse and maritime history enthusiasts published in East Machias, Maine. It started publishing in May of 1992 and is dedicated to saving lighthouse history, current and yesteryear, for future generations.

Stories include historical and current lighthouse events and a calendar of coming events of lighthouse activities around the United States and elsewhere. They publish a Doomsday List of Endangered lighthouses, and they have helped save a number of lighthouses that were in danger.

They have been credited with uncovering many parts of lighthouse history that had been unknown or which were thought to have been lost.

Each issue is packed with unusual stories of lighthouse news that, for the most part, cannot be found anywhere else, and there are lots of photos, both historic and modern day.

Lighthouse Digest has subscribers in all 50 United States and 17 other nations. Currently it publishes eleven issues a year. Editor and publisher is Timothy Harrison. Managing editor is Kathleen Finnegan.
