Lighthouse · Port Penn, Delaware

Liston Range Front Lighthouse

The tower, first lit in 1906, is dark now. The working light, a white light, on and off for equal times, every 6 seconds, stands nearby, about 30 m away. It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The 1906 front lighthouse of the Liston Range is now a private home at Bay View Beach; the range light shines from a skeleton tower beside it. Please view it from the road.

How to see it

Above water and inside the horizon from Augustine Beach, Port Penn, 2.7 km (1.6 mi) away, so on a clear day it can be seen from there, and CoastFinder puts a label on it.

On the website for now. Delaware's lighthouses are in the web viewer first, and they are coming to the CoastFinder app, which covers the North Carolina coast today. Follow @coastfinderapp to hear when Delaware arrives.
