The Ocracoke Lighthouse is located in Ocracoke Village at the southern end of Cape Hatteras National Seashore. The street address is
Lighthouse Road
Ocracoke, North Carolina 27960

35.108960, -75.985951

35° 6' 32.256", 75° 59' 9.4236"

The lighthouse stands about 75 feet (23 meters) tall. Its diameter narrows from 25 feet (7.6 meters) at the base to 12 feet (3.6 meters) at its peak. The walls are solid brick - 5 feet thick at the bottom tapering to 2 feet at the top. An octagonal lantern crowns the tower and houses the light beacon.

The exterior’s solid white coloration serves as its identifying mark to mariners by day. The original whitewash “recipe” called for blending lime, salt, spanish whiting, rice, glue, and boiling water. The mixture was applied while still hot.

A fourth-order Fresnel lens was installed in 1854, replacing the old reflector system. Its hand-cut prisms and magnifying glass greatly intensified the light. Early in the Civil War, the lens was dismantled by Confederate troops but was re-installed in 1864 by Union forces. Originally an oil-burning light, the Ocracoke Light was electrified in the early decades of the 1900s. The present light is equal to 8,000 candlepower and casts a stationary beam that can be seen 14 miles at sea. A battery powered back-up light operates during power failures.

The Ocracoke Light is the second oldest operating lighthouse in the nation. With its aid, yesterday’s sailing vessels safely navigated the channels. Today, fishing and pleasure boats pass within its view. Time, however, has not changed the often tricky character of the shoal-ridden inlet. The historic lighthouse still stands by to make the waters safe.

Blackbeard the pirate (Edward Teach) was killed by Royal Navy Lieutenant Robert Maynard on November 22nd, 1718 just offshore in Ocrocoke inlet.
