About Cantic Lighthouse
This lighthouse is situated on a pier extending into a river a short distance north of the U.S. border, near Lacolle. The structure consists of a 4-meter mast centered atop a one-story customs building. It emits an isophase red light on a 2-second cycle, visible for 9.3 nautical miles. The site is open to the public, but the tower itself is closed. The Canadian Border Services Agency manages the location.
Why it matters: The lighthouse is important for river traffic navigating near the U.S. border. Its unique integration with a customs building highlights its functional role in border operations.
