About

The Cape Anguille Lighthouse is a tapered, octagonal, reinforced-concrete lighthouse measuring 58 feet (17.7 meters).

It is located on insular Newfoundland’s most westerly point, within the Codroy Valley, a glacial valley formed in the Anguille Mountains. It is the second lighthouse on site, with the current tower dating to 1958-60.
