South Point Light, Santa Rosa Island is a navigational light initially installed in 1925.

It is also the name of the survey station established in 1934 by Robert W. Knox:

“The station is the finial of the automatic light located on South Point on Santa Rosa Island. The station is at an elevation of 413 feet. The best way to reach the station is to make a boat landing on the lee side of South Point and make up the trail blazed by the lighthouse service to the station. There are no station or reference marks.”
