Alone but never lonely. Peggys Point Lighthouse

Perched on a rugged granite outcropping, Peggys Point Lighthouse is a stoic guardian of Nova Scotia's coast. Built in 1914, the 15-metre-tall lighthouse embodies the enduring spirit of maritime Canada. Its beacon was first turned on in 1915. The current lighthouse replaced a wooden structure made in 1868 that was damaged by Hurricane Edna in 1954. The ground floor of the building served as a post office during the summer months until 2009, when Canada Post shut down the service, citing mould growth as a hazard. The lighthouse, now automated, attracts visitors eager to glimpse into Canada's seafaring past and feel the ocean's spray.
