Point Reyes Lighthouse

Lighthouse · Inverness, California

An 1870 lighthouse on a headland that is the windiest place on the Pacific coast and the second foggiest in North America — which is precisely why it was built there. It sits at the bottom of 308 steps, and it is closed to visitors whenever the wind exceeds about 40 miles per hour, which is often.

27000 Sir Francis Drake Boulevard, Inverness, California, 94937, United States

Lighthouse generally Friday to Monday, 10:00 to 16:30. Free. Stairs close in high wind. Mandatory shuttle on some winter weekends.
