Pigeon Point
Pigeon Point
Nestled along the rugged coastline of California, Pigeon Point Lighthouse stands as one of the tallest on the West Coast, towering at 115 feet (35 meters). Completed in 1872, it was named after the “Carrier Pigeon,” a clipper ship that tragically wrecked offshore in 1853. While the crew was rescued, the ship was lost, and the area was subsequently named Pigeon Point in memory of the incident.
Since its completion, this historic lighthouse has served as a vital navigational aid for mariners, helping ships safely navigate the treacherous waters south of San Francisco. Its iconic structure has weathered the challenging coastal conditions for nearly 150 years and remains one of the most recognizable landmarks along California’s coastline, symbolizing both the state’s maritime history and its resilience.
