Lighthouses of the Outer Banks

A couple of lighthouses we visited on the Outer Banks of North Carolina in 2023.

Cape Hatteras Lighthouse, completed in 1870, and the tallest lighthouse in the USA at 193ft (58m).

Hatteras Lighthouse closeup. You get a sense of the scale by how small the individual bricks look!

Ocracoke Lighthouse, built in 1823, and it’s the second-oldest still-operational lighthouse in the USA.
