Cape San Blas has had four lighthouses. The first, built in 1847, collapsed during a gale on August 23–24 of 1851. Congress appropriated $12,000 for a second brick tower lighthouse for the cape which was finally finished in November 1855, but it was destroyed on August 30, 1856, when another hurricane struck Cape San Blas.
The nearby lighthouses at Cape San Blas and Dog Island were destroyed by the same hurricane, and Apalachicola was heavily damaged. The Cape St. George lighthouse was rebuilt in 1851–52, 250 yards (230 m) inland from its previous site; construction was hastened by the salvage and re-use of two thirds of the bricks of the ruined tower.
The first Cape San Blas Light was completed in 1849 with an appropriation of $8,000 made 2 years earlier. The shoals running out from the cape extended 3.5 or 4.3 nautical miles; 6.4 or 8.0 kilometres (4 or 5 mi) and made it dangerous for all vessels nearing the coast.
San Diego, meanwhile, offers mild weather and plenty of outdoor activities for pets and their owners, including 102 dog-friendly trails. There are 10 dog-friendly beaches within 50 miles of the city.
