Horseshoe Bay Light
Built in 1972 on the shores of Lake LBJ in Horseshoe Bay, Texas, this inland lighthouse is one of the few functioning freshwater lighthouses in the state. Originally constructed as a decorative landmark for the Horseshoe Bay resort community, it remains an active navigational aid for boaters on the lake. The tower is not open to the public for climbing, but it makes a striking subject from the surrounding shoreline. Golden hour and sunset offer the best photography conditions, with the light silhouetted against the Hill Country sky. Nearby, visitors can explore Inks Lake State Park, Longhorn Cavern, and the scenic Highland Lakes chain stretching along the Colorado River.
