25th Anniversary Event - International Lighthouse Lightship Weekend - August 20, 21 2022





Location: The Jupiter Inlet Light is located in Jupiter, Florida, on the north side of the Jupiter Inlet. The site for the lighthouse was chosen in 1853. It is located between Cape Canaveral Light and Hillsboro Inlet Light. The lighthouse was designed by then Lieutenant George G. Meade of the Bureau of Topographical Engineers. That multi-story residential building wasn't there in 1860! Until that building was constructed, there was always a clear view east to the horizon.
