Moss Beach, San Mateo County, California, 94038
In 1925, before being sent to its current location, the cast iron tower was moved to Yerba Buena.
The lighthouse originally had a kerosene lantern, but was upgraded in 1912 to a fourth order Fresnel lens.
The lighthouse is open to the public, and is the site of a hostel.
The lens was transferred to the San Mateo Historical Society when the lighthouse was automated in 1970, and is currently on display at the library at the College of Notre Dame in Belmont, California.
