Kilauea Lighthouse

Kilauea Lighthouse, located on the northern coast of Kauai, Hawaii, was built in 1913 to guide ships safely through the treacherous waters of the Pacific Ocean. Standing 52 feet tall, it was once one of the most powerful lighthouses in the U.S., with a light visible for over 20 miles. The lighthouse is situated on a scenic cliff, providing stunning views and is surrounded by a wildlife refuge that includes seabirds and tropical plants. Today, Kilauea Lighthouse is a popular tourist attraction and is managed by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, emphasizing conservation and education.
