About Sea Girt Lighthouse
The Sea Girt Light, built in 1896, stands as a former navigational aid on the New Jersey shore. This lighthouse, with a tower height of 13 meters and a focal height of 13.5 meters, originally marked the inlet to Wreck Pond. Though no longer operational, its structure remains a point of interest in Sea Girt. The lighthouse occupied a location between the Barnegat and Navesink lighthouses along the coast.
Why it matters: Sea Girt Light holds historical significance as the site of the United States' first radio beacon installed at a shore installation.
