Point No Point Lighthouse (Point No Point, Washington) - Pictures from the Ovation of the Seas - September 2nd, 2022 Pictures of the beautiful Point No Point Lighthouse taken on our way northward after leaving Seattle.  This is one of the early lights you see once you start heading towards Alaska and points north.   Like others along the way, it is not that high off the water.  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.
