Lighthouses of the world

Bram point Lighthouse Nantucket New England

A.L.🗼🗼Longstone Lighthouse is an active 19th century lighthouse located on Longstone Rock in the outer group of the Farne Islands off the Northumberland Coast, England. Completed in 1826, it was originally called the Outer Farne Lighthouse, and complemented the earlier Inner Farne Lighthouse. The lighthouse is best known for the 1838 wreck of the Forfarshire and the role of Grace Darling, the lighthouse keeper's daughter, in rescuing survivors.

Old Lighthouse keepers life boat!

Coast Guard station at Brookings, Oregon with a cruiser pulling into the harbor. My sister lives in Brookings. My brother-in-law and I were out fishing when the fuel pump went out and we were able to call them to  come and pull us in to the harbor. What a wild ride that was!

Lighthouse staircases are typically spiral staircases that wind their way up the interior of the tower. They are often constructed of iron, and can feature numerous landings for resting. The number of steps can vary greatly, with some lighthouses having over 200 steps. 

Lake Light. Rawley Point Lighthouse.
Manitowoc County, WI.

A major feature of Point Beach is Rawley Point and the lighthouse operated by the U.S. Coast Guard. The Coast Guard has operated a lighthouse here since 1853.

The first lighthouse was a brick tower and home that served mariners until 1894, when a new steel tower was installed.

The light is atop this steel tower that rises 113 feet above the lake surface and is one of the largest and brightest on the Great Lakes. It is visible up to 19 miles away and operates from a half hour before sunset until a half hour after sunrise.

The Kincardine Lighthouse is a historic lighthouse located in Kincardine, Ontario, near the mouth of the Penetangore River. Built in 1881, it is 24.4 metres (74 feet) tall and was built above the light keeper's home. The tower is eight sided and sits on a stone foundation. The facility has been renovated and is now the Kincardine Yacht Club and a museum.
