Description
The Admiralty Head Light is a deactivated aid to navigation located on Whidbey Island, Washington. The restored lighthouse overlooks Admiralty Inlet. It was the companion to the Point Wilson Light, which sits four miles away on Admiralty Inlet's western shore.
This 30-foot-tall (9.1 m) lighthouse, constructed of brick and stucco, was built in 1903. The design by Carl Leick incorporated thick walls meant to withstand earthquakes. The lighthouse was deactivated in 1922, and the fourth order fresnel lens was moved to the New Dungeness Lighthouse in 1927.
