Lady of the light

According to witnesses, in the dim light through the painted window, some saw the shape of a tall, peaceful woman in a flowing gown who would slowly pace the tower’s walkway. 👣

Many believed her to be the first lighthouse keeper’s wife who stumbled from the edge of a cliff one foggy night.

There are many other conspiracies including those who believe she is waiting for the return of a lover who’s lost at sea and others who think that she is the shade of a heartbroken woman who threw herself from the cliffs when’s she found herself abandoned by her intended.

The ghostly shadow continues to persist at Point Vicente Lighthouse. 😳 Source: terranealife.com

The Terranea Discovery Trail is an interpretive trail along the blufftop, with a small pocket beach and tide pools (not wheelchair accessible) below Vicente Bluffs. 🏖

The trail features beautiful wildflowers and is suitable for all skill levels. 🚶‍♂️

The trail is accessible year-round. Dogs are also able to use this trail, but must be kept on leash. 🐕

Terranea Resort

For today’s tourist in my own city, I visited the beautiful Terranea Resort.

This resort has been filmed in many movies including Pirates of the Caribbean, has delicious restaurants, coffee shops, a golf course, and has breathtaking views of the ocean.

The best part? It’s just a short drive from SoCal cities., yet feels worlds away from the busy 405 freeway.

I'd highly recommend this resort for all ages. If you're hungry, you'll enjoy the many restaurant choices they offer including Nelson's, Bashi, and Catalina Kitchen.

Full? You can build an appetite with a round of golf on their nine-hole course that totals approximately 1,239 yards from the back tees.

You won't be able to beat the coastal view.

A fun fact may not know is that it was once Marine Land (Think Sea World).

I'd give Terranea Resort a solid 4.5 stars for its beautiful scenery and delicious restaurants. I'd recommend reviewing the restaurant options in advance as some may think it is too pricey.
