Kilauea Lighthouse

The Kilauea Lighthouse was built in 1913 and had the largest lens of its kind in the world. Guiding ships from the Orient it demarked the northernmost point of the main Hawaiian Islands. It was decommissioned in the 1970s and its lamp was turned off and replaced with a low-maintenance beacon. The lighthouse and adjacent visitor's center are one of Kauai's most popular attractions.
