Alligator Reef Light is located 4 nautical miles (7.4 km; 4.6 mi) east of Indian Key, near the Matecumbe Keys of Florida in the United States, north of Alligator Reef itself. The station was established in 1873.
The Alligator Reef Light sits on Alligator Reef. A wreck traditionally considered as the remains of USS Alligator is located 200 feet southwest of the lighthouse and can be seen by snorkelers and divers year-round; however a 1996 expedition has challenged this identification, and the wreck is probably that of another 19th c. ship.
