Lighthouse · Nāwiliwili, Hawaiʻi
Nāwiliwili Lighthouse

The tower is still an aid to navigation. Its light shows one white flash every 15 seconds, seen up to 9 nautical miles out. It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The tall concrete tower on Ninini Point stands at the end of a Līhuʻe Airport runway, with a beacon on its capped top since it never had an enclosed lantern; it is reached through the Kauaʻi Marriott and golf course.
