Located at the end of Center Road/M37 on the Old Mission Peninsula, Mission Point Lighthouse is now open for the season, 10 a.m. – 5 p.m. daily. The first floor museum is free to tour; however, there is a small fee to see the 5th Order Fresnel lens, 2nd floor museum, and the tower. All proceeds from admissions benefit the Mission Point Lighthouse and its preservation, restoration and interpretation.
The park, trails and beach are open daily until 10 p.m. year round.

SUPPORT YOUR INDEPENDENT LOCAL NEWSPAPER: I started Old Mission Gazette in 2015 because I felt a calling to provide the Old Mission Peninsula community with local news. After decades of writing for newspapers and magazines like the New York Times, Los Angeles Times, Family Circle and Ladies' Home Journal, I really just wanted to write about my own community where I grew up on a cherry farm and raised my own family. So I started my own newspaper.
Because Old Mission Gazette is a "Reader Supported Newspaper" -- meaning it exists because of your financial support -- I hope you'll consider tossing a few bucks our way if I mention your event, your business, your organization or your news item, or if you simply love reading about what's happening on the OMP. In a time when local news is becoming a thing of the past, supporting an independent community newspaper is more important now than ever. Thank you so much for your support! -Jane Boursaw, Editor/Publisher, Old Mission Gazette
