Ponce de Leon Inlet Lighthouse, Florida - National Historic Landmark
The Ponce Inlet Lighthouse is located on the east coast of Florida, just south of Daytona Beach. The Lighthouse is one of the most complete light stations in the country. This aerial footage shows the lighthouse grounds, along with the 3rd order lens in the tower and inside their lens exhibit building which contains an impressive array of Fresnel lenses.
Ponce Inlet Lighthouse (Florida's Tallest) Historic Tour
In this video, we tour the Ponce De Leon Inlet Light Station, which was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1998. The lighthouse tower and museum are located 10 miles south of Daytona Beach and are open to the public year-round.
The Ponce Inlet Lighthouse is the tallest lighthouse in Florida and the second tallest masonry lighthouse in the country second only to the Cape Hatteras Lighthouse in the Outer Banks of North Carolina.
Visitors can climb 203 steps to the top of the 175-foot tower and enjoy magnificent views of the World's Most Famous Beach, Ponce Inlet, and surrounding inland waterways from the lighthouse gallery deck.
The Ponce de Leon Inlet Lighthouse began as the Mosquito Inlet Lighthouse with the purchase of ten acres of land on March 21, 1883. The lighthouse tower design was based on Light-House Board standard plans with modifications made for the specific site. The lantern room was based on the design used at Florida's Fowey Rocks Lighthouse.

The inlet where the Ponce Inlet Lighthouse stands today has long been known as one of the most treacherous in the southeast. Since 1565, when the entire French fleet of Admiral Jean Ribault was wrecked by a hurricane in the vicinity of this Inlet, many ships have been lost here. The Inlet was explored by Captain Antonio de Prado in 1569 and named Los Mosquitos because of the large number of insects. Captain Álvaro Mexía charted the inlet in 1605, but, except for the planting of a few orange groves, the Spanish never settled the area.
When Great Britain gained the Province of Florida in 1763, plantations were settled in this area, and commerce became so great that the colonial government maintained a beacon or daymark at the entrance to Mosquito Inlet. Spain regained the colony in 1784, but the plantations languished.
After Florida passed to the control of the United States in 1821, the plantations revived, and the need for a lighthouse at this dangerous inlet was recognized as early as 1822. However, it was not until June 30, 1834, that Congress appropriated $11,000 for the construction of the lighthouse.
John Rodman, Collector of Customs for St. Augustine, chose a site on a 12-foot high dune on the south side of the Inlet. Winslow Lewis was selected to oversee construction of the forty-five-foot tall brick tower and the installation of the tower's 15 Winslow Lewis reflector lamps. Construction of the new tower was completed in February 1835, at a cost of $7,494. William H. Williams, a long-time Florida resident, and step-son of prominent plantation owner Joseph Hernandez, was selected as Mosquito Inlet Lighthouse's first keeper. Although moving into the light station's keeper's quarters with his family in 1835, oil for the lighthouse never arrived, and the Williams was never able to light the lamps. He removed their silver reflectors and stored them in a trunk in the keeper's house.
In October 1835, a hurricane struck, washing away the keeper's quarters and undermining the foundations of the lighthouse enough to cause it to lean. The trunk holding the lamp reflectors was lost in the storm. Keeper Williams and his family abandoned the area and moved back to his stepfather's plantation. Two months later, Seminole Indian attacks throughout north Florida signaled the start of the Second Seminole War. In December 1835, a Seminole war party under the leadership of Coacoochee (also known as the Wildcat) attacked homes and settlements along the Halifax and Indian River, including the damaged Mosquito Inlet Lighthouse.
The Seminoles may have discovered some of the lighthouse lamp reflectors which probably washed up on a nearby shore. Three weeks after the attack on the Lighthouse, members of the Mosquito Roarers (one of several Florida militias formed in the early days of the Second Seminole War) reported seeing Coácoochee wearing one of the lamp reflectors as a headdress during the Battle of Dunlawton. Much to the white population's dismay, the Seminoles won the battle, and the area' s white population was forced to abandon the Mosquito Inlet area under fear of death. Unable to repair the leaning lighthouse due to the Native American uprising, the damaged Mosquito Inlet Lighthouse finally toppled into the sea in April 1836. It would take more than 50 years for the government to decide to construct the present lighthouse at Mosquito Inlet.

GTM Research Reserve protects 73,352 acres south of the City of Jacksonville (Duval County) in St. Johns County and Flagler County on the northeast coast of Florida, one of the fastest growing regions in the state. The populations of St. Johns County and the adjacent Flagler, Putnam and Volusia counties have grown 20 percent since 1990 and are projected to grow an additional 20 percent by 2010. More than 1.3 million people live within 50 miles of GTM Research Reserve, including the cities of Jacksonville, St. Augustine, Palatka, Daytona and New Smyrna.
These protected areas provide habitat for a wide variety of fish and wildlife. A species list recently compiled for Guana River Marsh Aquatic Preserve indicated the presence of at least 44 mammal, 358 bird, 41 reptile, 21 amphibian, 303 fish and 580 plant species. It contains habitats essential to 48 protected animals and 8 protected plants.
GTM Research Reserve is also important for the economy because these include 16 species that are fished or harvested commercially and 18 species that are fished recreationally.
GTM Research Reserve is geographically separated into a northern and southern component, separated by the City of St. Augustine. The northern component (referred to locally as Guana) is associated with the Tolomato and Guana River estuaries and the southern component is associated with the Matanzas River.

Turtle Mound, A Prehistoric Archaeological Site.
Turtle Mound, A Prehistoric Archaeological Site. This has been on the list for quite some time. To the average person this doesn’t look like much of anything and even when you’re standing on it you have to know what you’re looking at to appreciate it. In keeping with the practice of Florida’s aboriginal inhabitants, the Timucua were mound builders, this particular mound is the largest extant shell midden in the continental United States, it is visible from seven miles offshore and from the earliest Spanish explorers mariners have used it as a landmark. As large as it still is, it is a fraction of its original size due to erosion and European settlers using the shells for road construction, but to be able to stand on the exact same ground used aboriginal man for millennia was awe inspiring.
Sebastian Inlet Campground, Melbourne, FL - Cheap RV Living
Camping at Sebastian's Inlet State Park in Florida was beautiful but AWFUL. The RV was full of no see ums and they are blood sucking vampires. Deet bug spray helps but it isn't fool proof. The surrounding area for water activity is vast and mostly good. The cove was a place we'd love to re-visit but camping while no see ums are in season is out of the question!! Juan Ponce De Leon Beach near Melbourne was our favorite on the Atlantic. Lots of fishing to be had here but conveniences of grocery, etc are all about 20 minutes away.
