Lahaina Lighthouse, Lighthouse in Lahaina, Maui County, United States

The white concrete lighthouse tower rises 39 feet above the Lahaina harbor breakwater with an external staircase leading to the lantern gallery.

King Kamehameha III established the first lighthouse at this location in 1840, making it the earliest navigational beacon in the Hawaiian archipelago.

The lighthouse stands as a maritime symbol of Lahaina's past when the harbor served as the primary whaling port in the Hawaiian Kingdom.

The lighthouse emits a red flash every six seconds, visible for seven nautical miles, and operates on solar power for maritime navigation.

The structure survived the devastating 2023 wildfires that destroyed most of Lahaina, remaining as one of the few standing historical buildings.
