About Halifax Harbour Inner Range Rear Lighthouse
This cylindrical steel tower, standing 17.5 meters tall, is painted white with a single red vertical stripe. It carries a large trapezoidal slatted daymark.

Its focal plane is 38 meters above sea level, and it emits a white flash every 10 seconds, providing a geographic range of 16.7 nautical miles. The site is open to visitors, though the tower itself is closed to the public. It is situated just 0.8 kilometers from the nearest port.
