Crooked River Lighthouse Full Moon Climb

June’s Full Moon is called the Strawberry Moon.  Visitors can enjoy this opportunity to see the gorgeous natural surroundings of the St. George Sound and Carrabelle Beach under the evening sky.  Guests can also enjoy the fire pit (weather permitting). Plus for this month’s Full Moon event, there will be live music provided by Kevin Andrew and the Rockulla Performers, a variety of young talent that will be playing guitar and ukulele, and singing classic country and modern songs. Also being featured that night will be the Rockulla duo “Sumpin’ Old and Sumpin’ New, a father and son team that plays a great variety of music. Bring a chair and enjoy the evening. The museum and gift shop will be open for browsing and shopping.

The climb to the top of the tallest Forgotten Coast lighthouse rewards bold climbers with breathtaking views of the bay. The cost is $8 for adults and $3 for kids. All climbers must be 44 inches tall. Due to the popularity of the Full Moon Climbs, advance reservations are required for those who wish to climb the lighthouse tower during this event. Call 850-697-2732.

COVID protocols limit one party at a time to climb the tower, and each party will exit before the next one climbs. A limited number of climbers are allowed in each party. There will be a time limit for viewing from the top.  Guests who would like a more leisurely climbing experience are welcome to enjoy one of the daytime climbs available every Wednesday through Sunday.
