About Île aux Raisins Range Rear Lighthouse
This steel skeletal mast, standing 23.5 meters tall, was first lit in 1863. It is painted orange with a black vertical stripe and carries a daymark. The original rear light structure was replaced in 1903. The focal height of the light is 27 meters, and its geographic range is 14.7 nautical miles. The illumination consists of a continuous green light and an isophase white light, each on a 2-second cycle.
Why it matters: This rear range light is part of a system guiding navigation south of its front counterpart. It provides the critical alignment needed for vessels to accurately traverse a specific channel.
