Crooked River Light, Maritime navigation light in Carrabelle, Florida.

The iron and steel skeletal tower reaches 103 feet in height and contains 128 winding steps leading to a circular viewing platform.

Built in 1895 to replace three earlier Dog Island beacons destroyed by storms, the lighthouse guided ships through the pass between Dog and St George Islands.

The Keeper's House Museum displays maritime artifacts from the 1900s, including navigation equipment, personal objects, and documents from lighthouse operations.

The lighthouse opens Wednesday through Sunday from 11:00 AM to 5:00 PM, with tower climbs requiring visitors to measure at least 44 inches tall.

The original Fourth Order Fresnel lens, manufactured in Paris in 1894, features an uncommon bi-valve open face design with a 90-degree group flash pattern.
