Yaquina Bay Lighthouse The Yaquina Bay Lighthouse is a working lighthouse and an aid to navigation by the Oregon Parks and Recreation Department. It was restored with the help of many people and agencies, who wanted to open this lighthouse for visitors. From afar you you'll see the light that shines with a steady white light. And it is possible not only in the night! The light shines also on dark days, because it is controlled by a photocell.
Get inside the lighthouse and visit the basement; it is always open to the public. There you'll see an interesting video about the lighthouse. Many new and exciting educational items about lighthouses and the surrounding coastal habitat are now accessible for visitors.
