*** About Old Point Loma Lighthouse: Positioned on the Point Loma peninsula at the entrance to San Diego Bay, the Old Point Loma Lighthouse is a historic beacon that has been guiding ships since 1855. Standing 422 feet above sea level, this lighthouse was one of the highest in the United States, which paradoxically led to its retirement from operation in 1891, as its light would often be obscured by fog. Now preserved as part of the Cabrillo National Monument, it serves not only as a piece of navigational history but also as a public museum cherished by visitors and locals alike. Its architecture and location offer a picturesque view that encapsulates the maritime heritage of San Diego.
