Seahorse Reef Lighthouse
Location & Light Range
About Seahorse Reef Lighthouse
Seahorse Reef Light is a 9.5-meter-tall skeletal tower situated on a pile-supported platform. Its focal plane is also at 9.5 meters, and it emits a white light with a single flash every 6 seconds. This structure replaced a taller tower that was destroyed by a storm in March 1993. The navigational aid is located on the outer edge of a reef, southwest of the Cedar Keys lighthouse. The site is open to the public, though the tower itself is closed.
Why it matters: This light marks the outer edge of a reef south of Cedar Keys, which is a navigational hazard.
