Point Reyes Lighthouse
Unlike traditional lighthouses, the Point Reyes Lighthouse was built hundreds of feet down the cliffside to remain visible beneath the dense Pacific fog. Accessible via a steep 312-step descent, this historic beacon rewards visitors with breathtaking ocean views, powerful waves, and striking coastal scenery. The lighthouse itself, with its classic red roof and white walls, creates a perfect focal point against the dramatic backdrop of the sea. Sunset and stormy weather conditions add to the location’s moody appeal, making it a must-visit for landscape and maritime photographers. (Point Reyes National Seashore, California, USA)
