Point Pinos Lighthouse

80 Asilomar Blvd, Pacific Grove, CA 93950

Oldest continuously operating lighthouse on the West Coast.

Since February 1, 1855, its beacon has flashed nightly as a guide and warning to shipping off the rocky California coast. Alcatraz Island Lighthouse preceded Point Pinos by 8 months, but was replaced in 1909 by the expanding military prison.
