The Old Point Loma Lighthouse is no longer in operation, but you can tour through it as it now serves as a museum. One very interesting note is that while it was in operation from the mid-1850s until early 1900s, it had the highest elevation of any lighthouse in the U.S. (thanks wikipedia). Of course, this caused problems sometimes, because sometimes the light could not be seen by ships.
If you live in or visit San Diego, take a trip to Cabrillo National Monument to check out this San Diego treasure!
