- A still-working 1889 lightstation on a volcanic sea rock, tourable by guided walk only
- More
- The volcanic rock carries the only complete turn-of-the-century light station open to the public in California — three-hour docent tours climb the 1889 stone buildings against serious wind. Moonlight tours sell out; the 1935 crash site of the Navy dirigible USS Macon lies in the sanctuary waters offshore.
