Mile Rocks Lighthouse, a distant Point Bonita, and the Marin Headlands
Mile Rocks Lighthouse is a lighthouse on a rock about 2 miles southwest of the Golden Gate Bridge, California.
The lighthouse was completed in 1906. It was on this rock that the SS City of Rio de Janeiro was wrecked shortly before the building of the lighthouse. One hundred and twenty-eight persons, of 209 aboard, lost their lives when the City of Rio de Janeiro sank on February 2, 1901.
