Harbour Town Lighthouse, South Carolina

I was amazed how fascinating the view up here!

The Harbour Town light was privately built in 1969 (my year of birth) and is a private aid navigation. It is the most recognizable symbol of Hilton Head Island and Sea Pines Resort.

It is 90 feet tall with hexagonal shape and red and white bands.  It's a cute little tower with an amazing view on top.  The golf tour in South Carolina has helped increase the fame of the lighthouse to golf fans worldwide. 

There are plenty of things to do when visiting the Hilton Head.  Eating ice cream after going up to the top of the lighthouse is one.   

If I will choose the top five on my lighthouse list, this would be one of them.
