These are our first tours of 2020, benefiting the on-site education at
Point Cabrillo for grade school kids all over Mendocino County, and
beyond!
Join us on the first weekend in March for two days of Lens Tours to the
top of our historic 1909 Lighthouse! From 10am - 4pm on March 7 and March
8, we'll be offering tours to the Lens Room of the Point Cabrillo Light
Station.
10:00 am - 4:00 pm
$5/ person
Must be 42" or taller
These tours are only offered a few times a year, and are a treat to
experience. You'll have excellent views and enticing stories of the
lightkeepers that lived on the grounds as you climb the ladders to the
top.
Tours typically take about 45 minutes altogether, and a new group goes up
every 10-15 minutes! You'll stop on each floor and learn fascinating facts
from our excellent volunteer docents.
Point Cabrillo Lightkeepers Association (PCLK) volunteer docents will
highlight Light Station history and local culture with visitor
presentations at the Lighthouse and other locations in the State Historic
Park. Weather permitting, docents will also lead walks to nearby Frolic
Cove and relate the story of the clipper brig Frolic, wrecked off the cove
in July 1850 bound from China to San Francisco with a valuable cargo of
Chinese merchandise for the Gold Rush miners and their families.
