Client the Magic of Crescent City
The Community – Crescent City, CA
Nestled just 20 miles south of Oregon, the sea-faring town of Crescent City boasts California's northernmost lighthouse station, the historic 1856 Battery Point Lighthouse, perched atop a tiny island accessible only by foot during low tide. Visitors traverse the causeway, ascend the narrow spiral staircase, and crawl through a trap door to enjoy a breathtaking 360-degree view from the lamp room. Nearby lies the St. George Reef Lighthouse, constructed in response to the 1865 shipwreck of the Brother Jonathan, laden with gold coins and bullion, much of which remains undiscovered. After exploring these maritime landmarks, wander the waterfront, witness the city's remarkable rebuilding following a devastating 1964 tsunami, and encounter playful sea lions at Ocean World aquarium. For a touch of nature, venture to Pebble Beach Drive, where agate hunting awaits along the oceanfront.

About the Facility – Pelican Bay State Prison
Pelican Bay State Prison, situated near Crescent City in California, is renowned as one of the most secure correctional facilities in the United States. Operating within a remote and rugged landscape, it's designed to house some of the state's most dangerous inmates, particularly those involved in gang-related activities. Notorious for its Security Housing Unit (SHU), Pelican Bay gained notoriety for its stringent solitary confinement practices. However, recent reforms have been implemented to address concerns regarding long-term isolation.
