Summary
[edit]| Description |
English: The lighthouse was open when I arrived and vandalized on Tuesday, April 26, 2011. My pictures were taken September 17, 2011, then why hasn't the Coast Guard secured the site in the last 5 months??????? This is probably due to the fact that Point Aconi lighthouse is on the surplus list so they really don't care about it ! My information says it is still operational, I don't think it is since much of the wiring had been cut. Maybe next time I am in this area there will be no lighthouse, why would they repair a surplus lighthouse, some government official will probably say tear it down....... It is a sad fact that many small communities will not be able to afford the care and maintenance of these surplus lighthouses.
The first lighthouse was built here in 1874. The existing light station was built in 1989. The tower is 11.6 meters (38ft) high, light height: 25.6 meters (84ft) above water level.

Operating: This light is operational Year began and lit: 1989 Tower Height: 11.58 meters (38ft) high. Light Height: 25.6 meters (84ft) above water level. |
