The tower is still an aid to navigation. Its light shows one white flash every 7.5 seconds, seen up to 24 nautical miles out. It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Its lantern was removed in 1964, and the lantern and old Fresnel lens are now on show in Astoria, Oregon; the grounds are a city beach park at the end of Olai Street in Kalaeloa.

How to see it

Above water and inside the horizon from Barbers Point Beach Park, 225 m (737 ft) away, so on a clear day it can be seen from there, and CoastFinder puts a label on it.

On the website for now. Hawaiʻi'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 Hawaiʻi arrives.
