Lighthouse · McGregor Point, Hawaiʻi
McGregor Point Lighthouse
The tower was first lit in 1915 and is still an aid to navigation. Its light shows a green light, on and off for equal times, every 6 seconds, seen up to 10 nautical miles out. The small white concrete tower stands on the point southwest of Māʻalaea, below the McGregor Point scenic lookout on the Honoapiʻilani Highway, a favorite spot for watching humpback whales.
