Diamond Head Lighthouse

Diamond Head Lighthouse is a prominent symbol of Hawai`ian history to residents and visitors alike. It stands on a tuff-cone volcano, formed by explosive eruptions thousands of years ago. The original lighthouse on this site was built in 1899 but rebuilt in 1917. The current lighthouse uses the original Fresnell lens which focuses the light of a 1000-watt bulb so that it can be seen more than 18 miles out to sea. The Lighthouse Keeper's dwelling now serves as the quarters of the Commander, Fourteenth Coast Guard District.
