Marrowstone Point Lighthouse (Marrowstone Point, Washington) - Pictures from the Ovation of the Seas - September 2nd, 2022 The Marrowstone Point Light (or Lighthouse) is relatively short and sits at the northern end of Marrowstone Island in Fort Flagler State Park These were taken on our way northward after leaving Seattle.  Trying to clean up the lighting as it was a bright and hazy day - making less than ideal conditions for getting lighthouse pics.  Taken during our cruise on board the Royal Caribbean Ovation of the Seas for the seven night Alaska Experience Cruise (September 2nd through 9th, 2022).  The cruise embarks from Seattle, Washington and the itinerary includes stops in Juneau (AK), Skagway (AK), Sitka (AK) and Victoria (British Columbia, Canada) before heading back to Seattle.
