Dutch Island Light is a historic lighthouse on Dutch Island off Jamestown, Rhode Island.In 1825 the federal government acquired 6 acres at the southern end of the island, and on January 1, 1827, Dutch Island Light was established to mark the west passage of Narragansett Bay and to aid vessels entering Dutch Island Harbor. The first 30-foot tower was built of stones found on the island. The government constructed a new 42-foot brick tower in 1857 with a fog bell added in 1878.
