Add to Cart Add to Lightbox DownloadDIGITAL PANORAMA COMPOSITED IMAGE -Sunrise on the Kilauea Point Lighthouse located on the northernmost point of the main Hawaiian islands on the island of Kauai. The lighthouse, built in 1913 as a navigational aid for commercial shipping between Hawaii and the Orient was deactivated in 1976 and replaced with an automated beacon for local boaters and aircraft. The Kilauea Point Lighthouse is part of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Kilauea Point National Wildlife Refuge. The refuge is home to the largest populations of nesting seabirds in Hawaii including red-footed boobies, Laysan albatrosses, wedge-tailed shearwaters which nest along the ocean cliffs and open grassy slopes of Crater Hill, an extinct volcano.
