Pointe Mitis Lighthouse, Métis-sur Mer, Quebec

The Pointe Mitis Lighthouse is located just West of the village of Métis-sur Mer in the coast area of the Gaspe region of Quebec. It is situated on a point of land and accessible only by a private road. When I visited the site in September 2017, the area around the lighthouse was fenced off and there was no access to the actual site. The lighthouse dates to 1909 and is a 21 metre tall concrete tower with an adjacent keeper's house. Light remains active. The site is now maintained by the village of Métis-sur Mer.
