Place Name: Yaquina Head Lighthouse
Tower Height: 93 ft.
Coordinates: N 44° 40’ 37” W 124° 4’ 46”
Location: Yaquina Head Outstanding Natural Area, Oregon, USA
During the era of western expansion the ocean was the highway and lighthouses the road signs. Like a milepost in the darkness, the 8 ½ foot tall Fresnel lens of Yaquina Head Lighthouse, located at the top of the 93 foot tower, was one link in a chain of coastal lights that dotted the Northwest coast. Built approx. 40 miles apart, these lighthouses opened the Pacific Ocean to nighttime traffic.
