Long Eddy Point Lighthouse

Grand Manan - Bay of Fundy

I am told that the "star" you see to the right [and above] of the moon is the planet Venus.

Grand Manan is a small island sitting in the Bay of Fundy just off the New Brunswick mainland. Most of the inhabitants and businesses are located on the eastern side of the island while the western part remains rugged for the most part.

Long Eddy Point is one of a few lighthouses that lie on the western side of the island and is a favourite spot for watching sunsets. The island is not very wide and the drive there from the main road is a short one.



"This active, square concrete building and tower dates back to 1874; alterations were made in 1966 and it was reconstructed in 1971.

This is a concrete block structure elevated on a cliff with a scenic view of Campobello Island. From here you can spot whales out in the bay and other marine life. The coastal walking trail passes by this scenic area." - NewBrunswick Tourism site
