At the tip of the Old Mission Peninsula a pair of parks combine for 650 acres on the 45th Parallel, include a historic lighthouse and almost 10 miles of trails and a beach area for swimming. Adjoining Lighthouse Park to the south is the 520-acre Old Mission Point Park and three trailheads serve the interconnecting trails with the most popular one by far being Lighthouse Park within a stone’s throw of the historic lighthouse.
