Tillamook Rock Lighthouse

West of Tillamook Head, this lighthouse was constructed on top of a rock in 1880. The construction of this particular lighthouse was thought to be incredibly risky, but its five workers beat the odds. Because this lighthouse was built on a rock, it is not accessible to the public. However, visitors can easily see it and a beautiful view of the surrounding ocean from Ecola State Park.
