St Augustine Lighthouse and Museum

Shining its beacon of light at the Oldest port in the United States, the St. Augustine Lighthouse is the longest surviving brick structure in the city. Completed in 1888, the lighthouse is 165 feet above sea level and boasts a heart pumping 219 steps inside. The original French made Fresnel glass remains and continues to brighten the way for sailors at night.
