Admiralty Head Light stands at Fort Casey State Park near Coupeville, Washington, overlooking Admiralty Inlet on Whidbey Island. Built in 1861, the original lighthouse was replaced by the current Spanish-style structure in 1903, which served until its decommissioning in 1922. The tower is not open to climbing, though the building houses an interpretive center worth exploring. Its photogenic white walls and red roof photograph best during golden hour, with dramatic Puget Sound backdrops. The lighthouse is not currently active. Nearby, visitors can explore Fort Casey’s historic gun batteries, catch the Port Townsend ferry, and visit Ebey’s Landing National Historical Reserve, one of the Pacific Northwest’s most scenic coastal preserves.
