The Crooked River Lighthouse
The Crooked River Lighthouse and the Carrabelle Lighthouse Association in Carrabelle, Florida, USA have a long history going back where for almost 118 years the lighthouse guided timber ships, oystermen and local fishermen through the treacherous pass between Dog and St. George Islands. The Carrabelle Lighthouse Association was formed when, despite it's inclusion on the National Register of Historic Places, the Crooked River Lighthouse was decommissioned, and they are dedicated to preserving, restoring and keeping the lighthouse open to the public. Come for a slice of fascinating maritime history, there's a Keeper's House Museum and gift shop, and for a small fee you can climb the lighthouse Wednesday through Sunday, plus they host many events here.
