Yaquina Head Lighthouse

Yaquina Head Lighthouse is one of the most popular lighthouses in the United States. There are hundreds of thousands of guests that visit every year. The tower is the tallest on the Oregon Coast, rising 93 feet in the air. This lighthouse is the only Oregon Lighthouse with a marble floor. It stands 162 feet above sea level, and can be seen from ocean vessels as far away as 19 miles. We were told this by one of the volunteers at this lighthouse. He added that it can be seen "no further, thanks to the curvature of the earth."
