Cape San Blas, Florida Vacation Rentals Houses and Condos.

Cape San Blas has the distinction of having had the most lighthouse towers on it's site than any location in Florida, the present tower being the fourth at this location. The lighthouse history is what makes Cape San Blas a key attraction for those seeking Cape San Blas vacation rentals by owner beach houses, condos and cottages.

You might say that the Cape San Blas was the hard luck light. The original 65 foot brick tower was built in 1848 and was destroyed by a hurricane only three years later. A second brick tower was completed in 1855 and fell to a hurricane only 10 months later. A third brick tower equipped with a third order lens was completed and lit in May of 1859. During the Civil War the Confederate Army burned the keepers quarters and all the other buildings to prevent their use by the Union forces, but the light tower survived.

The Confederate lighthouse superintendent had removed the lamp and clockwork apparatus before the attack. The lamp was reinstalled and relit on July 15, 1866. The Gulf waters eroded the land from around the tower until it stood in 8 feet of water, and the lighthouse keeper had to row out to the light. On July 3, 1882 the tower fell into the sea.

It was decided to replace the light with a steel skeletal tower, however, the ship delivering the supplies sank off Sanibel Island. Fortunately, the ship went down in shallow waters and the tower was reclaimed. On June 30, 1885 the new tower was lit using the third order lens from the previous tower. Incessant erosion continued to threaten the tower, and in 1918 it was dismantled and moved about a quarter mile to it's present location. The light was discontinued on January 18, 1996.

The light may be functional no longer, but people enjoying their Cape San Blas vacation rentals by owner beach houses, cottages and condos enjoy its mystique.
