Inscription back: Historic Heceta Head Lighthouse presents an unusual pictorial study through the arch of Cape Creek bridge along the coast highway, US 101. Heceta Head was named to honor an early Spanish navigator, Captain Bruno Heceta, of the corvette Santiago which sailed this way in 1775 at a time the Oregon coast was but little known. Today a lighthouse sends out its guiding beams for the ships that pass in the night. (Oregon State Highway Commission Photo #408)
