Central California has loads of warm sun - except at Point Reyes. This area is notorious for its fog, often stretching for miles out over the Pacific. This day proved no different, between the fog and the driving wind, it made the walk up and down to the lighthouse a real character builder. Still, the rocky coast was a sight to see, and a memorable visit.⁣

The Point Reyes Lighthouse, also known as Point Reyes Light or the Point Reyes Light Station, is a lighthouse in the Gulf of the Farallones on Point Reyes in Point Reyes National Seashore, located in Marin County, California, United States.

The park's adjacent Lighthouse Visitor Center features exhibits about the lighthouse and the park's marine life and natural history. Visitors can climb about 300 steps down to the lighthouse itself, weather permitting. The main chamber of the lighthouse, known as the Lens Room, features the Fresnel lens and clockwork mechanism, and is open to the public on a limited basis.
