Description
Тhe Old Point Lomo Lighthouse is located on the military base in the Cabrillo National Monument. It was lit for the first time in November 1855. After several years, a building was constructed to serve as a home for the lighthouse keeper and today visitors can enter some of the rooms to see how these dedicated men and their families lived and worked. While the lighthouse was in operation it had the highest elevation of any of its kind in the United States. In 1891, the lighthouse stopped operating and was replaced by the New Point Lomo lighthouse at a lower elevation. The lighthouse once served as a beacon for sailors but today serves as a popular location for visitors to see the reconstructed interior and learn about its interesting past. A Must-Go!! Here you get the best views of San Diego! On one side the ocean and the other the city.
