Piedras Blancas Light Station is located at Point Piedras Blancas, about 5.5 miles west by northwest of San Simeon. It was first lit in 1875 and automated in 1975. Today it is managed as a historic park and wildlife sanctuary. The Light Station is named for the distinctive white rocks that loom just offshore. These rocks and the rugged shoreline are home to seabirds, sea lions and elephant seals. Today it is managed as a historic park and wildlife sanctuary. Over 70 native plant species can be found on the 19 acres surrounding the Light Station. Please make sure to stay on the boardwalk and away from the seals while shooting.
