Lighthouse of the Week, September 13-19, 2015: Port George, Nova Scotia, Canada


On Nova Scotia, the lighthouse that gets most of the publicity and most of the tourist shots is at Peggy's Point.  So I thought for a change of pace I'd go with the humble roadside Port George lighthouse.

The Marinas page for the Port George Lighthouse, which is where I got the first picture from, has basic info, including a zoomable map.  It's on the northwest side of the island (the Bay of Fundy coast), just about in the middle of the island.

Lighthouse Friends page:  Port George, NS  (pretty simple)

Below are two pictures of it.  Because it so humble and unassuming, and also far from the main population centers on the island, I don't think that it's photographed nearly as much as the more famous lighthouses on Nova Scotia.
