The Lighthouse Outside - This restored 54 foot lighthouse is generally small and not very tall, but because it sits on top of a large cliff, it's light can be seen all the way to Wisconsin on a clear night! The lighthouse plus the cliff is 168 feet high and the general beacon range is 22 miles. 35 lighthouse keepers lived here during the duration of service.

This ship is where the Mafaata was shipwrecked. Many people dock there and dive to see the ship. |
What a view from your front window! |
Super cool typewriter! I've never seen one like this before! |

You can see the lighthouse from the front porch |
After viewing the visitor center and snooping through the museum where we just bought postcards for the grandkids, we went back outside one last time and then exited through the most beautiful lighthouse gates.
We wanted to explore down on the beach as well, so we drove down the road. There is also a foot path that you can walk down to the beach and if you do, you can see the Tram House and Tramway Ruins. Originally, the tram was used as an incline rail system to the boathouse below for supplies, etc. - used before the road was built.
Do you see the Bumble Bee? |
