Find out what it would be like to be a lighthouse keeper as you climb 219 steps to the top of this tower. Not only you see the working light, but you will also have a breathtaking, panoramic view of the surrounding St Augustine area and beaches. Your tour of the tower, the keeper's house and grounds is enhanced by exhibits and videos. This 19th-century tower is one of only six lighthouses in Florida open to the public—only 30 are still standing.
