Battery Point Lighthouse From Afar
Battery Point Light was one of the first lighthouses on the California coast. The fourth-order Fresnel lens was lit in 1856. The lighthouse was automated in 1953, and a modern 14.8-inch (375 mm) lens replaced the fourth-order Fresnel lens. Accessible by foot only at low tide, Battery Point is currently a Maritime Museum and is operated by Del Norte County. Visited here in August of 2009.
