The East Point Lighthouse is aptly named for its location near the easternmost coast of the island in Saint Philip Parish. The 97 foot, conical tower with a black lantern was erected in 1875 on the former Golden Grove Plantation. The government-owned land is now called Ragged Point, as is the small village. Hence, the light is often called the Ragged Point Lighthouse. You can walk around the grounds but cannot climb up the still active lighthouse.
