Beautiful Lighthouses

in #travel9 years ago

Lighthouses used to be a necessary tool to warn mariners of land masses. They are now seen as iconic emblems of sea-travel and waterways, though many still offer navigation assistance to ships. Here are some beautiful lighthouses:


Portland Headlight, Maine - This was completed in 1791, making it the oldest lighthouse in Maine and one of the oldest lighthouses in America.


The St. Augustine Light, Florida - Since 1994, the property has been open to the public as part of the St. Augustine Lighthouse & Museum.


Block Island Southeast, Rhode Island - The Victorian-style light keeper's building stands out for its architectural beauty.


White Shoal Light, Michigan - It is the only aluminum-topped lighthouse on the Great Lakes, and also the only “barber pole” lighthouse in the U.S.


Pigeon Point Lighthouse, California


Montauk Point Lighthouse, New York


Bass Harbor Head Station, Maine


Fanad Lighthouse, Ireland


Peggy's Point Lighthouse, Canada

These lighthouses are really beautiful and offer wonderful views of the water. They make me want to be near the ocean on a warm and sunny day. Please upvote if you enjoyed these pictures. Have a great day!
