Originally known as the Gasparilla Island Light Station, the Port Boca Grande Lighthouse is the oldest structure on the island and has been a beacon to mariners since 1890. Do not swim at this pass beach, as there are many sharks in the pass, due to the large amount of wonderful Tarpon living there.
