Prim Point Lighthouse

After what seemed like an endless winter and early spring arrived. The first decent day we had in early March and off we were to go see our first Lighthouse for this year. Prim Point Lighthouse is located on the shore of the Bay of Fundy marking the enterence to the Digby Gut. A quick drive down Lighthouse Road in Digby and we were there.


It was a beautiful day to travel to the shore. It was fairly warm, even with little patches of snow around, no big gusts of wind and best of all it was a clear day! No fog in sight, and thank goodness for that! There is a large Fog Horn on site (close up pictured below) and I can't even imagine being near that thing when it goes off.


My boys and I had a great day at the lighthouse. Spent a lot of time just looking around, and walking the hillside down to the rocky ledges, it was a really nice afternoon and a great place to get some nice scenic photos of the Gut, Bay of Fundy, and Annapolis Basin all in one trip.


This is the 4th Lighthouse that has stood in this spot, but the red vertical stripes are one thing that has always remained the same. For more information of the history of this particular "Light Station" you can visit this link to Lighthouse Friends.

Over all it was a nice Lighthouse to visit and I reccomend the trip to anyone who enjoys them. You can get right up to the Lighthouse and all around it enjoy it from any distance or angle you wish.

Until next time, Happy Travels.
