First lighted in 1859, it was decommissioned in 1929 and replaced with a lightship. The lightship in turn was replaced by the 1954 Art Deco style St. Johns Lighthouse, which is also on Naval Station Mayport. The Mayport Lighthouse Association or MLA is a volunteer-driven nonprofit organization dedicated to saving and restoring St. Johns River Lighthouse, as well as safeguarding the cultural, historical, and maritime heritage of Mayport Village. Our guest, Elizabeth Boggs, is the vice president of the Mayport Lighthouse Association. Elizabeth was recently awarded a “Guiding Light” award for her volunteer work at the St. Augustine Lighthouse. !https://news.uslhs.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/Boggs_Elizabeth-Volunteer-Award-1024x683.jpg Elizabeth Boggs (right) was recently awarded the “Guiding Light” Award for her volunteer service with the St. Augustine Lighthouse and Museum.
