2 full moon climbs at the St. George lighthouse in August




The first August Full Moon Climb at the Cape St. George Lighthouse on St. George Island
will be held on Thursday, August 2, 2012. The Sunset/Full Moon Climb will take place from
8:00 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. and will include light hors d'oeuvres and a sparkling cider toast to the
full moon. Cost is $15.00 for the general public and $10.00 for members of the St. George
Lighthouse Association.


The sun will set at 8:31 p.m. and the moon will rise at 8:47 p.m. on August 2.


After sunset, people are invited to climb to the top of the lighthouse for a breathtaking view of
the full moon, as space and time permit. Cost is $10.00 for the general public and $5.00 for
SGLA members.


Since August is a “blue moon” month, meaning that there are two full moons in the month of
August, there will be a second Full Moon Climb on Friday, August 31, from 7:30 p.m. to 9:00
p.m.


The Cape St. George Light is located in St. George Lighthouse Park at the center of St. George
Island, where Island Drive (the road off the bridge) ends at Gulf Beach Drive. Parking is
available in lots at either side of the park.


Because space is limited, reservations are recommended. For reservations or more information,
please contact the St. George Island Visitor Center at 850-927-7744 or toll free at 888-927-7744.
