Ponce de Leon Inlet Lighthouse rises above a preserved light-station complex in Ponce Inlet.

Keeper buildings and maritime exhibits place the tall brick tower within the working history of navigation along this changing stretch of Florida coast.
Check museum admission, tower access and weather notices before traveling. The photograph shows the lighthouse. Climbing involves many stairs and restrictions that differ from visiting ground-level exhibits. Discuss mobility needs beforehand, supervise children and follow staff instructions; an admission ticket does not override a weather-related tower closure.
