Dec. 7, 2019 - Oak Island, North Carolina, USA - The Oak Island Lighthouse was completed in 1958 at a total cost of $110,000.00. The lights are 169 feet above the water. A misconception is that the lighthouse itself is 169 feet tall. The actual structure is 153 feet tall, but it stands on a slight rise. (Credit Image: © Timothy L. Hale via ZUMA Wire)
