Description
The Biloxi Lighthouse, built in 1848, survived the Civil War and over 20 hurricanes.It is the only lighthouse in the United States that is located in the middle of a four-lane highway, that being Highway 90, along Mississippi's Gulf Coast. There are 57 steps to climb to the top of the lighthouse, which is open for tours as part of the U.S. Lighthouse Society Passport Program. If you are unable, or unwilling to make that climb, the Biloxi Visitors Center is directly across the street, and offers a lovely view of the lighthouse from its front porch, as well as an exhibit and a live camera view in their lighthouse lantern room.
