West Head


Here is the next Light on my travel route along the south shore that I got to see. This one wasn’t too hard to find, not far from the Causeway on to Cape Sable Island and just off to the left of the Wharf up on the hill in Clark's Harbour. I wouldn’t really call it a Lighthouse though, “Light station” seems more suitable for this one, however, I do enjoy seeing Lights that are different from the usual Pepper Shaker Style so I enjoyed seeing this one.

Just a quick fact, this light is definitely one of the smallest I have ever been to, if not the smallest, standing at just 6.1 metres tall. Slightly smaller than the original light that once stood in this spot (it was only 11 metres). To learn more visit the West Head Light on Lighthouse Friends. J

One more to go in my South Shore adventure, stay tuned for my next post for the Cape Sable Island Lighthouse, tallest Lighthouse in Nova Scotia.

Happy & Safe Travels
