Pigeon Point Lighthouse State Historic Point
Pigeon Point Light Station is a lighthouse built in 1871 to guide ships on the Pacific coast of California. It is one of the tallest lighthouses in the United States. It is still an active Coast Guard aid to navigation. Pigeon Point Light Station is located on the coastal highway (Highway 1), five miles south of Pescadero, California. The 115 foot, white masonry tower, resembles the typical New England structure. Because of its location and ready access from the main highway, Pigeon Point entertains a large number of public visitors.
