About Port McNicoll Range Front Lighthouse
This steel skeletal tower, standing 19 meters tall, was constructed in the 1950s and first lit in 1913. It is painted white and features a slatted daymark marked with a red vertical stripe. The tower guides vessels through a long, narrow inlet at the southwestern edge of Georgian Bay, leading towards the port. Its green light operates with a characteristic of flashing green. The structure stands on a tapered square base and includes a gallery.
Why it matters: This range front light is essential for vessels navigating the confined inlet leading to Port McNicoll, providing a precise bearing to ensure safe passage.
