Point Arena Lighthouse and Museum at 45500 Lighthouse Road, Point Arena, California.

A fun place to visit.

For a small fee you can go to the top of the lighthouse and the museum has some interesting history of the lighthouse and the area. The view is great if it's not too foggy.

What a fun place! A must see! It's not "just another lighthouse". It's The tallest lighthouse on the West Coast! It's pretty amazing to experience.

They have a cute little gift shop with nick nacks, shirts, snacks. They have a pressed penny machine! Bring your change. There's a cute museum, that has the light, from the top! It's so neat to see! They have a panoramic view room, with binoculars, to see whales, and such.

Parking is free. It's $7.50 per person to go up to the top, and they do tours every 15 minutes. The drive up to the lighthouse is breathtaking, and plenty of photo ops!

The jaunt up is tiring. 145 steps in a lot! It's a spiral staircase. There are places to stop, and catch your breath every so often. One even has a bench! But, I seen a guy with a Cain make it up! Do it!

Your rewarded when you get to the top. The views are AMAZING! I just wanted to stay up there forever. You go up to the top, where the light used to be. Then you go back down one part of the stairs, and you can go outside, and walk around the top, but outside. It's really neat.
