Point Roberts Lighthouse is located in Washington State, United States.

One report states that the original lighthouse at this location was destroyed during a storm in the 1930s.[1] According to a story in Pacific Yachting there might never have been a true lighthouse at this location,[2] just the present day tower. This story notes a current fundraising effort to build a lighthouse.
