Other Information

Located on the US Coast Guard Air Station Port Angeles.

Two lights were built on Ediz Hook. The first was built in 1865 and housed a 5th Order lens. The second was built in 1908 and used the same lens but had a new air siren. The 1865 structure was demolished in 1938 while the 1908 (minus the tower) was barged over to Port Angeles in 1946 and is still a private residence. The current modern optic is mounted on a steel tower at the Air Station.
