The Cedar Keys Lighthouse, is in fact, not at Cedar Key Florida, but several miles away, on Seahorse Key. The Island is oddly shaped with a hill not much more than a very large sand dune at the center of it. The lighthouse was built at the top. It was originally built as a brick tower in 1854, with the light 28 feet high, bringing it to a height of 75 feet above sea level. Later, 2 frame keepers dwellings were added to the tower.
