Hams Bluff Light

Hams Bluff Light on Saint Croix in the U.S. Virgin Islands began operating in 1915 under Danish rule, when the island was still part of the Danish West Indies. Responsibility later passed to the United States Lighthouse Service and then the United States Coast Guard. Although the original tower has been abandoned, the site remains an active aid to navigation, with its beacon relocated to a nearby truss tower. The light shows two white flashes every 30 seconds from a focal plane of 394 feet, or 120 meters. In 2019, it was added to the National Register of Historic Places for its maritime and historic significance.
