Alki Point Lighthouse Tour

Sun, May 25, 2025
Sun, August 31, 2025

Alki Point Lighthouse tour season begins Sunday, May 25, 2025. The lighthouse and grounds are open for public tours most Sunday afternoons between Memorial Day Weekend and Labor Day Weekend. See details below.

No tours nor site access available on Sunday, July 27, 2025 nor Sunday, August 3, 2025.

The Alki Point Lighthouse is a functioning, fully automated aid-to-navigation on an active US Coast Guard site. The Lighthouse is one of eight lighthouses on or near Puget Sound open to visitors. 

Located near Alki Beach in the West Seattle neighborhood, you can see the West Point Light Station in Discovery Park (north), Puget Sound vessel traffic and the Cascade Mountains (west). Mount Rainier (south) can be seen on clear days.

US Coast Guard Auxiliarists are proud to provide public Lighthouse tours on summer dates. Due to the nature of the site, tours may sometimes either be shortened or canceled on short notice. Any closed dates will be listed on this page and also communicated via our Facebook page. 

First visitors enter the site at 1 p.m. Last tour begins at 3:45. The U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary plans to provide tours every Sunday afternoon during the summer season through Labor Day weekend, pending availability of sufficient volunteer staffing. Any tour updates will be published on Friday each week on this Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/alkipointlighthouse
