About Davison Lighthouse
The Davison lighthouse is a 7-meter-tall square pyramidal concrete skeletal tower. It is painted with red and white horizontal bands and stands opposite Isla Picton on the north side of the Channel. Its focal plane is 8 meters above sea level, and it emits a white flash every 5 seconds. The structure encloses a square equipment shed. Access to the site is permitted, though the tower itself is closed to the public.
Why it matters: This lighthouse aids navigation for vessels transiting the waters opposite Isla Picton.
