About Point of Beach Sector Lighthouse
The Point of Beach Sector light was established in 2000, replacing the previous Harbour Grace Harbour lighthouse. This modern skeletal tower stands 6 meters tall, with its focal plane at 14 meters above sea level. It emits a sector light showing red, white, and green, with specific flash characteristics guiding vessels. The light has a geographic range of 11.6 nautical miles. Situated at the foot of Cochrane Street, it marks the north side of Harbour Grace Harbour. While the tower is closed to the public, the site is accessible.
Why it matters: This light provides precise directional guidance for vessels navigating Harbour Grace Harbour, particularly those approaching from the north. Its sector light system helps mariners avoid hazards and ensure safe passage to the port.
