Beautiful Lighthouses to Explore

We like light houses. They are typically surrounded and overlooking beautiful scenery and beaches. Even better is when they are the end point of an amazing hike! Here are some of our favorite lighthouses we've explored.


1. Dunedin Lighthouse, New Zealand
This lighthouse is also on the same point as the Albatross reserve and where tons of penguins come on shore daily! It was the first time we had ever seen penguins. They are the cutest little guys.


2. Makapuu Lighthouse, Oahu
The hike to this lighthouse is both a beautiful and uncrowded hike on the southeast coast of Oahu.


3. Anacapa Island Lighthouse, California
Anacapa Island is one of the small channel islands off of the Ventura Coast. It is part of the Channel Islands National Park.



4. Montauk Lighthouse, New York
This lighthouse overlooks New York's best point break, Montauk



5. Point Loma Lighthouse, San Diego CA
Part of the Cabrillo National Monument, here you can have great views of the San Diego Bay, Downtown San Diego and Mexico.

6. Point Venus Lighthouse, Tahiti
The beauty of Tahiti basically makes anything look good but either way the Point Venus lighthouse is a cool sight to see. It was constructed in the 1880s. It is a very bitchen' lighthouse.


7. Oceanside Lighthouse, CA
The Oceanside Lighthouse is a sight we are fortunate to see almost everyday. Its at the Oceanside Harbor next to our favorite surf break in Oceanside.
