Point Vicente Lighthouse - Great Attractions (California, United States)
- 13 years ago
Take a tour of Point Vincente Lighthouse in California, United States – part of the World’s Greatest Attractions series by GeoBeats.
The Palos Verdes Peninsula in the Los Angeles County of the US, is home to Point Vicente Lighthouse.
Constructed in 1926, it comes under the direct control of United States Coast Guard which is responsible for operating and maintaining it.
This nearly 67 feet tall tower gives out light at over 185 feet above sea level which serves the purpose of navigation excellently.
It was constructed because the potentially fatal surrounding water claimed the lives of many seamen in disastrous and unfortunate accidents.
Standing tall on the edge of a 130 foot tall cliff, visitors can seek stunning views of the gorgeous locale here.
It was also honored on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.
