Lighthouse of Prince Edward Island Part 2




Today I am continuing on with the
rest of the lighthouses that I have
photographed so far on our
little Island.
The one above is West Point
Lighthouse and you can
actually stay in this one
as they rent out rooms.



North Rustico Lighthouse

                                                                 Another Charlottetown Lighthouse

This is a popular lighthouse that is
in the process of having some
necessary work done to it .

                                                                     Northport Lighthouse
                                                            My husband and I have stayed at
                                                            the Northport Inn a couple of summers
                                                            ago and the lighthouse can be seen from
                                                            their balcony. I read that you can be taken
                                                             to this small island and dropped off with a
                                                             picnic basket and picked up later.


    Covehead Harbour Lighthouse

        This lighthouse is down east not far from the Cape Bear
lighthouse but I am not sure of the village name....
Guernsey Cove maybe?

                                                                      Cape Bear Lighthouse is famous for being the first
                                                                      Lighthouse in Canada to receive a distress signal from
                                                                       the Titanic before it sank.


                                                     I shared a winter shot of this Charlottetown lighthouse
in my previous post.
                                                    Northport again....so relaxing!

                                                                I know I am missing some of my
                                                                lighthouse photos but to see more
                                                                for yourself come to the Island and
                                                                do a coastal tour....you will be glad you did!

                                                                If you would like to see more of our Island
                                                                check out my Beautiful Prince Edward Island
                                                                board on Pinterest.

                                                                                         Thank you for visiting,

                                                                                                         Carolyn

Lighthouses of Prince Edward Island



Welcome!

Prince Edward Island is home to over 50 lighthouses
and I enjoy photography them on our travels
around the Island in either winter or summer.

     So, I am hoping you share my love for old lighthouses.

The one above is in Covehead on the north shore.

This one is in Brighton, Charlottetown.
I took this one a few weeks ago after
a fresh snowfall.


Although this one in Summerside overlooking the
harbor it is not a real lighthouse but I love the colors.

                                                               The Point Prim lighthouse is the oldest lighthouse
                                                               on Prince Edward Island and the only round one on
                                                               the Island.

These next two are at Fort Amhearst overlooking
the Charlottetown harbor.



     The Panmure Island Lighthouse has a
             nice gift shop where I bought some coastal
decor a couple of years ago.


The French River lighthouse overlooks
a nice sandy beach that we enjoy.

I hope you have a good week!
