Lincoln Rock Light, located in Alaska, was built in 1903 to guide vessels through the treacherous waters of the Inside Passage. This historic lighthouse served mariners for decades before being decommissioned and is no longer active. The structure stands as a weathered testament to Alaska’s maritime heritage, perched on a rocky outcrop amid dramatic coastal scenery.

The lighthouse is not open to the public, and visitors cannot climb the tower. However, it can be viewed and photographed from the water, with the soft light of summer’s long golden hours offering the best conditions — particularly during June and July. Nearby attractions include the Tongass National Forest, Wrangell’s petroglyph beaches, and excellent whale-watching opportunities throughout the Inside Passage.
