Point Sur State Historic Park, Maritime lighthouse compound in Monterey County, US.

Point Sur State Historic Park is a California State Park on the Big Sur coast of Monterey County, 19 miles south of Carmel. Its 1889 lighthouse stands on a rock summit about 110 metres above the sea, reached by a sandbar, with the keeper residences, barn and storehouse of the lightstation around it. The park also takes in the former Naval Facility Point Sur, a Sound Surveillance System site.

The 1875 wreck of the steamer USS Ventura, which ran onto rocks in fog while its captain was drunk, drove the push for a light here. John Bautista Henry Cooper sold 0.5 acres on the summit to the United States for $5 in 1889, and the light opened on August 1, 1889. The station was automated in the late 1960s and lost its last keeper in 1974; the state park was established in 1986.

The name Point Sur was given by the U.S. Coast Survey in 1851, replacing earlier Spanish names such as Morro de la Trompa. The station was self-sufficient: keepers and their families grew vegetables, and children stayed with local ranchers during the week to attend school until a teacher was assigned to the lightstation in 1927.

Access to the site is only possible through guided tours that start from a parking area along Highway 1. The path over the headland is uneven and often windy, so solid footwear and a windproof layer are worth bringing regardless of the season.

The 1889 lighthouse was built after the steamer USS Ventura ran onto rocks just north of the point in dense fog on April 20, 1875, with 225 passengers aboard; its captain, George John Fake, was drunk and no light marked the headland. John Bautista Henry Cooper sold the summit land to the United States for $5, with the right-of-way costing $1,495.
