Point Fermin Lighthouse. Point Fermin Lighthouse was the lighthouse for the Port of Los Angeles from 1874 to 1942. As an aid to navigation, it guided ships around the Point Fermin cliff sand and into San Pedro harbor. It was built in 1874 when Phineas Banning was dredging a navigable channel to Wilmington and developing San Pedro harbor as an ocean port.
Point Fermin Lighthouse is designed in the Stick Style popular at the time and used for several other contemporary lighthouses. (Long before Mission Revival came into being.) With all the Victorian gingerbread it is a very cute structure indeed. The lighthouse was in operation until 1942. It was tended by lighthouse keepers who lived with their families in the lower section of the lighthouse. During World War II, radar gear replaced the light and the building became one of the first radar stations. After the war, the lighthouse was used by the parks department for maintenance of Point Fermin Park. Point Fermin Lighthouse was restored to its original appearance in 2001 and opened to tours in 2003. 805 Paseo del Mar.

Fort Point, San Francisco. Typical "summer" day in San Francisco: High fog making dull, featureless gray sky and cold wind. Yep. Bring a sweater in summer in SF :)
We went to Point Lobos State Reserve which is just south of Carmel. We were about a week late for the whales which apparently came very close to the shore. Sigh. But we did see sea otters, harbour seals, pelicans and cormorants. Which was nice.
