And to round out this lighthouse trifecta is the Tybee Island Light, the oldest and tallest in Georgia. There were previous lighthouses around this site starting in 1732. The one that was built in 1773 was partially destroyed during the Civil War but the base remains on the current version. It’s 144’ tall, 178 steps and still functional with a first order Fresnel lens. #tybeeisland #georgia #peachstatepride #coastalempire #historicpreservation #lighthouse #maritimehistory
Old Harbor Light, Savannah. Built in 1858 to guide incoming ships into the Savannah harbor, it was decommissioned in 1880 when the channel was rerouted. It was restored in the 1990s. #savannahgeorgia #savannah #maritimehistory #lighthouse #rangelighthouse #historicpreservation
St. Simon’s Island Lighthouse and Keeper’s Dwelling, built between 1868-1872. The original third order Fresnel lens still is an active navigational aid and casts 23 miles out to sea. #lighthouse #ssi #stsimonsisland #fresnel #southernliving #glynncountyga #goldenisles
