The Round Island Lighthouse Preservation Society
The Round Island Lighthouse Preservation Society in Pascagoula, Mississippi is dedicated to the restoration and preservation of the lighthouse, which was erected on the south side of Round Island, off the Gulf Coast of Mississippi, in 1859. Damaged by several hurricanes over time, the lighthouse base was relocated to a new location at the foot of the Pascagoula River Bridge on U.S. Highway 90 entering the city, and is now protected from storm winds and erosion. Today the Round Island Lighthouse serves as a welcoming beacon and attraction for boaters and all who visit. Purchase some of the products available including coffee mugs and coozies, t-shirts, art works and prints to assist the Round Island Lighthouse Preservation Society with much needed funding.
