National Lighthouse Day – Jupiter Inlet Lighthouse

Lighthouses are wondrous things, like the historic Jupiter Inlet Lighthouse, beautiful, nonetheless incredibly useful. They serve two significant purposes, first, they serve as a navigation aid and secondly, to warn ships and boats of dangerous areas. August 7, 2021, is National Lighthouse Day.  If you are in the Jupiter area head on over to the Jupiter Inlet Lighthouse and Museum.

Celebrate how these scenic, historic structures guided travelers throughout the centuries. In 1789, the U.S. Congress passed an act securing the protection of all lighthouses under federal support. While lighthouse technology has evolved over time, lighthouses were once widely used to mark dangerous reefs, shorelines, and harbors.

The Moon, The Stars, and The Lighthouse

On August 25th, 2018, Jupiter Inlet Lighthouse will be hosting a moonrise tour to view the full moon from the top of the lighthouse.

On this day, the moon will be in “Waxing Gibbous” phase, meaning it is more than 50% illuminated but not yet a full moon, with the complete full moon actually happening at 7:56 am the next morning.  However, the moon will be high in the eastern sky around sunset, and will be 99% illuminated, providing for an all-around picturesque view.
