About Rockwall Harbor Lighthouse
Also known as: Rockwall Harbor (Scott Self Lighthouse)
A white, octagonal steel tower, 11 meters in height, stands on the breakwater at Rockwall Harbor. The black lantern surmounts the structure, which was first lit in 2007. Its focal height reaches 12 meters, offering a geographic range of 11 nautical miles. The light emits a steady white flash. In July 2021, the lighthouse was dedicated in memory of former mayor and county commissioner Scott Self. The site is open to the public, though the tower is not accessible.
Why it matters: This modern inland lighthouse guides boaters arriving at the Rockwall Harbor development, enhancing the experience for visitors to its restaurants, shops, and hotel.
