International Coastal Cleanup
Monday, September 24th, 2018 by nancy

Want to be a part of something bigger than yourself? Then join us at the beach for International Coastal Cleanup day on September 15, 2018.

In 1986, two women who were working at the Ocean Conservancy came together with a common goal – collecting and documenting the trash along the coast. The efforts of these individuals has grown to encompass hundreds of thousands of volunteers participating in events around the world. You can be one of those volunteers!

Lens Tour at Point Cabrillo Light Station
Thursday, September 20th, 2018 by nancy

Saturday is your last opportunity this season to tour the restored 3rd order Fresnel lens. Once you ascend the stairs and emerge onto the platform, it’s hard to remember that you’re on the lens tour. The view from this vantage point is like none other. Once you catch your breath, turn around and fix your gaze on the magnificent lantern that, even today, acts as a guiding light for ships cruising the California coast. Learn more about the history of the station and the people who lived here on the Point Cabrillo website.

This is a family-friendly activity, but children must be at least 42 inches tall to go on the tour. There is a ½ mile walk to the lighthouse from the parking area.

Date: Saturday, September 22

Time: 10 am – 4 pm

Fee:  $5 pp
