The Cape Arago Light aka Cape Gregory Light is a lighthouse on the Oregon Coast of the United States, located in Coos County. It is more than a mile north of Cape Arago.

It is not accessible to the public and was decommissioned in 2006. It is visible from the Oregon Coast Trail between Sunset Bay State Park and Shore Acres State Park, and from Bastendorff Beach County Park.[1] [2]

The structure was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1993. [1]
