Piedras Blancas Coast at Sunset

Several major rock structures mark the location of Point Piedras Blancas at the entrance to San Simeon Bay on California's central coast. Contained in this scenic landscape is Piedras Blancas Light Station, lighting the rugged, rocky coast for over 100 years. Established in 1875 and built to fill the gap between the lighthouses at Point Conception and Point Pinos, a First Order Bivalve Fresnel lens was originally installed in the light station but was removed in 1949 due to storm damage. It currently stands on display in the Pinederado Park in Cambria. http://www.beachcalifornia.com/piedras_light.html
