Egmont Key to St. Petersburg

Tampa Bay

The whole mouth of the bay, with the Sunshine Skyway and passes that spell the letter A.

Egmont Key Light has guarded the mouth of Tampa Bay since 1858. Inside, the long dredged cuts of the ship channel are lined with ranges, and the lights at Johns Pass and Pass-a-Grille spell out the letter A in Morse code.
