Review:

Cockspur Island lies near Lazaretto Creek in the south channel of the Savannah River and falls within the boundaries of the famous Fort Pulaski National Monument. The island is also home to several attractions, the Cockspur Island Lighthouse being one of them. Built in 1855 on an oyster bed foundation, the Cockspur Island Lighthouse once acted as a beacon to warn ships of the rugged coastline, and it survived direct line of fire in the American Civil War. Visitors can view the island from a distance.
