Description

PLEASE, NO invitations, graphics or self promotions, THEY WILL BE DELETED. My photos are FREE to use, just give me credit and it would be nice if you let me know, thanks.

This lighthouse is located along the Minas Channel, connecting the Bay of Fundy and Minas Basin, Spencer’s Island was formerly one of Nova Scotia’s shipbuilding ports.

The lighthouse was built in 1904. The tower stands 10 meters (33ft) high and is 10.36 meters (34ft) above water level.

After the lighthouse was discontinued in 1987, the Spencers Island Community Association acquired the tower from the government. The lighthouse is open to the public and features displays on the town’s shipbuilding heritage.

In 2006, permission was received from the Canadian Coast Guard to reactivate the light in the tower.
