Point Clark lighthouse was built between 1855 and 1859 to warn sailors of the shoal about three kilometres offshore. Its elegant proportions and limestone exterior are typical of the six “Imperial” towers built in the region, a lighthouse style rarely seen elsewhere in Canada.



Tours are available starting the middle of June to October.
