The Ludington Light is a 57-foot-tall steel-plated lighthouse in Ludington, Michigan which lies along the eastern shores of Lake Michigan. Given its location on the northern breakwater where the Pere Marquette River meets Lake Michigan, it is sometimes known as the Ludington North Breakwater Light. It is currently operational.
