The Cape Blanco Lighthouse is the oldest and is located on the westernmost point in Oregon.   The 59 foot light sits on a 245 cliff jutting a mile and a half into the Pacific.  The Light is in the Camp Blanco State Park just a few miles north of Port Orford, OR.


The light was commissioned in 1870.

This is the last of the 9 lighthouses on the Oregon coast.

It also concludes our southern trek down the coast.
