St.
Augustine Lighthouse:This
165 foot tower was constructed in 1874 and is located on St. Augustine's
Anastasia Island. It
rests on an octagonal foundation and has the same one-story entry building
with gable hood seen at North Carolina's Bodie Island. The first-order
lens originally installed in the 1874 tower was replaced with an automatic
flashing beacon for a time after vandalism damage in 1986, but the
original lens is now restored to full operation. The lens makes one
rotation every 90 seconds, with three bulls-eyes giving St. Augustine its
characteristic flash every 30 seconds.
