About Popes Harbour Lighthouse
This skeletal steel tower stands 7 meters tall and emits a light with a focal height of 9.5 meters, visible for 10.2 nautical miles. Its design features a red tower with a single white horizontal band, topping a triangular skeletal mast that carries a matching daymark. The structure serves as a modern navigational aid, marking the entrance to Popes Harbour in Nova Scotia. Although the site is open to the public, the tower itself is closed. The nearest port, Sheet Harbour, is 5.4 kilometers away.
Why it matters: This light guides vessels into Popes Harbour, assisting local fishing fleets and recreational boaters in navigating the coastal entrance.
