The dazzling lights outlining this West Coast outpost are a herald of the holiday season in Santa Cruz, California. Typically trotted out for the city's annual Lighted Boat Parade, they've also been known to spread cheer at other times of the year—for example, during spring 2020, when the rise of COVID-19 had everyone in need of a spirit lift. The classic-style beacon they adorn, the Santa Cruz Breakwater Lighthouse, replaced the previous one (an unsightly metal edifice nicknamed the 'water heater') in 1998.
