Daniel K. Inouye Kīlauea Point Lighthouse

Kīlauea, HI

The 1913 lighthouse occupies a dramatic volcanic headland inside Kīlauea Point National Wildlife Refuge and once carried a large second-order Fresnel lens. Refuge reservations, wildlife closures, and storm-recovery conditions can affect access, so check the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service before routing.
