Fisgard Lighthouse, Colwood, British Columbia, Canada

Canada is the second-largest country by landmass after Russia and every corner abounds in natural treasures—like the Great Bear Rainforest, the Northwest Passage, the Columbia Icefield or the Haida Gwaii archipelago—with 80% of its land being unoccupied. Looking out at the pleasant waters of Colwood's natural harbour is the Fisgard Lighthouse, seen here. The tower was the first lighthouse on the west coast of Canada, built on the Fisgard Island in the Esquimalt Harbour, British Columbia, in 1860. It was named after HMS Fisgard, a British Navy ship that spent 60 years on duty. The beacon was constructed in 1860 to assist vessels entering Esquimalt Harbour in British Columbia. The lighthouse is 17 metres tall.
