Point Judith Light, Coastal lighthouse in Washington County, United States.
Point Judith Light features an octagonal granite tower with the upper section painted brown and the lower section painted white to guide maritime traffic.
The original 35-foot tower from 1810 was destroyed by a hurricane in 1815, leading to the construction of the current structure in 1856.
Maritime captains in 1871 requested a change from horn to whistle for the fog signal to differentiate it from nearby Beavertail Lighthouse.
The lighthouse maintains a fourth-order Fresnel lens with a focal height of 65 feet and projects light visible up to 16 nautical miles.
The waters around Point Judith mark the convergence of Narragansett Bay and Block Island Sound, creating challenging conditions for navigation.
