The day we were here it was pouring / pelting sideways rain, the clouds were dark and grey and the fog bank was socked in. We could only see a very small circle of choppy water, everything was dripping.

Cute lighthouse next to a small park with a picnic area and a short walk along the water. Great to stop by, take a breather, and enjoy the scenery.

Beautiful waterfront setting on historic site. Loved it! Nice walking path with benches for sitting and relaxing while enjoying the view. Lots of interpretive panels to learn about the history of the site and the local community. Well kept lighthouse with reception area and restrooms. We were able to see several boats heading out to sea for fishing. Enjoying watching birds and seals from the Point....
