Photograph of a birdseye view of a restaurant and lighthouse on an outcropping near the ocean, [s.d.]. The restaurant can be seen to the right of center with arches visible surrounding the first story. The second story is not as large as the first, and as such leaves a walkway around the entire second story. Six tables with striped umbrellas can be seen to the left of the restaurant, while several automobiles are parked in front of the building at left. Two automobiles can be seen at far left, while two more automobiles can be seen at top behind the lighthouse. A road runs in front of the restaurant at bottom, and is partially obscured by a hillside in the right foreground. Several people are visible on the beach at right, while the ocean can be seen in the background. A sign on the restaurant reads, "Lighthouse [...]".
