Description
Wright iron, skeletal structure
fourth order Fresnel lens
Gasparilla Island, take the Boca Grande Causeway (Fee to get on island) near the southern end of Highway 775 southwest of Port Charlotte. Once on the island, follow the main road towards the southern end of the island. The range light is about 1.7 miles from the southern end of the island, alongside Gulf Boulevard. It is right by a beach parking lot and road.
