East End Light, Solar-powered lighthouse in East End, Grand Cayman.

The East End Light stands 8 meters tall with a steel skeletal design, marking the eastern point of Grand Cayman Island in the Caribbean Sea.

The original structure from the early 1900s consisted of a 60-foot ship mast where William James Watler maintained a kerosene lantern for maritime navigation.

The National Trust for the Cayman Islands manages the East End Lighthouse Park, preserving maritime heritage for future generations through educational programs.

Visitors can reach the lighthouse via a stairway from Austin Conolly Drive, though the steel tower structure remains closed to public access.

The lighthouse operated as a strategic lookout post during World War II, with Home Guard members monitoring coastal activities from its elevated position.
