The Point Arena Lighthouse stands as an iconic figure on the landscape of the American Pacific Coast. No other lighthouse offers such a fully interactive experience in the exchange between history, science, and natural beauty. Sometimes brilliantly sunny, other times fog-shrouded and mysterious, always ruggedly beautiful, the lighthouse is a place to find something different, a place where the romance is real and the experience is profound. Surrounded by water on three sides, and shouldered adjacent to the Point Arena-Stornetta Public Lands, the Point Arena Lighthouse is the premiere visitor destination in Mendocino County. Visit the gift shop and museum with its historical artifacts and tall tales of lighthouses. With nightly lodging and tours of the lighthouse offered daily, what will you discover on your next visit?
