Southwest Head Lighthouse, Grand Manan Island, New Brunswick

The Southwest Head Lighthouse sits atop a high cliff at the Southwest tip of Grand Manan Island in the Bay of Fundy. A station was originally established at this point around 1880, and the current lighthouse dates to 1989. The cliffs around the light are very impressive. Beside the lighthouse sits a tall pyramidal steel communications tower.  Photographs taken in August 2014.
