Incredible views of the coast though you can't regularly visit the light tower. There is a house museum and fish tank on the path. Lovely historical displays. Look for the Baltimore mentions.

Jeremy Leslie

Take the trail to the light station over walking down the driveway. It's a beautiful walk offering views of the actual spot of the shipwreck Frolic, the cliffs & sealife, and of course the lighthouse .

Doug Fortier

Open 365 days/yr, 1 of the most complete US lightstations, a half mile walk to the lighthouse . Three Lightkeepers houses, East House a period museum , stay in other 2 (+ 2 cottages,) pointcabrillo.org.

Cute little old lighthouse and Victorian buildings. Cool place to explore and worth the hot walk from the parking lot .

Ryan

If it looks to be a slow day, go ahead and drive down most of the way yo snag one of maybe 5 parking spaces . The walk down the paved path is nothing special.

Andrew Sandler
