Announcing Family Fridays starting in May 2013

On the first Friday of every month, the Point Arena Lighthouse doors are open free to all California residents and military personnel. You and your family can gather together with other families to experience the wonders of this historic lighthouse and history. Explore the Museum exhibits, climb to the top of the tower and enjoy many special activities. But you don't have to be a California family or military personnel to enjoy this fun filled day of activities.

There is no limit as to what you can take advantage of at Point Arena Lighthouse. You can bring a picnic lunch and whale watch from the beautiful grounds. One can enjoy seeing the wildlife and birds that inhabit the area. With the Museum, one can research fascinating lighthouse history in depth. You can also rent our lovely vacation cottages and experience what it was like for lighthouse keepers who lived here. One can browse through our Gift Store and find treasures to take home.

Stimulating is a suitable word to describe the kind of day you are likely to have when visiting Point Arena Lighthouse. The Lighthouse is a great place to visit whether you are a local Californian or a visitor to the beautiful Mendocino Coast. It is a place of wonderment and adventure. Join us for our Family Friday starting May 3, 2013!
