Located at the northern end of Monterey Bay, Santa Cruz Harbor ... Walton Lighthouse... love exploring lighthouse!!
The lighthouse, designed by Mark Mesiti-Miller and constructed by Devcon Construction, Inc., stands 41 ½ feet tall above the level of the west jetty, and 59 ½ feet above the mean low water mark. It weighs 350,000 pounds and is built to withstand a quarter million pounds of wave energy.
The wharf at Seabright Beach just got to take a stroll by these beach ate when visiting any beach!
