MANAGED BY THE CARRABELLE LIGHTHOUSE ASSOCIATION (CLA), CROOKED RIVER LIGHTHOUSE INCLUDES A LIGHTHOUSE TOWER AND KEEPER'S HOUSE MUSEUM. The Lighthouse Tower, built on its current site in 1895 and restored in 2007, is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. This iron skeleton structure is topped with a circular parapet which provides great viewing for those adventurous enough to climb its 128 inside steps which are open to the public. This historic 103-foot lighthouse is the tallest on the "Forgotten Coast", also known as the Panhandle. The Crooked River Lighthouse Tower is open for climbs, weather permitting. Exhibits include a historical setting of the early 1900’s, examples of beacons and the methods of constructing a skeletal tower lighthouse. Everyday life objects in the Keeper’s Room include its original clock, a barometer, a glass fire grenade, pages from the keeper’s watch book, currency and much more.
