    Really enjoyed my visit to the lighthouse. I took so many photos, I've only seen lighthouses from a distance but have never been in one. It was cool getting to go in and climb to the top. It is very hot up there!

    I love the story of this lighthouse! I was fortunate to be able to climb upstairs to see an over view of SPI downtown & the waters along with the condo's & hotels. So beautiful! The climb up is steep. Use caution. It would be nice to experience it at night I bet!

    Wherever I travel, I always like to find historical unique finds that are off the beaten path. On my way to South Padre Island last summer, this adorable and charming lighthouse called to me in Port Isabel. It is a little port city on the way to SPI. It cost just a few dollars to climb into its interior and walk up those very narrow steps to reach the top. Wear solid sneakers or sandals, flip flops will not help you and could possibly make you slip and fall, those stairs are narrow and steep. But all the sweat to reach the very top to take in the South Texas views is worth it. And how many of these bygone relics can one climb into anyways? Make the 20 minutes and be fascinated by the small good things in life.

    The lighthouse.

    It has a lot of steps to walk about and all. The view from the top is phenomenal. You can see all of port Isabel.

    Great historical marker to still be able to enjoy and the fact that it lights up once again after 150 years is just awesome.
