The Point Amour Lighthouse stands tall amid the limestone cliffs on the south coast of Labrador. Climb the 132 steps to the top of the lighthouse – the tallest in Atlantic Canada – and be rewarded with a panoramic view of the Strait of Belle Isle. The lighthouse has figured prominently in the lives of the people of Southern Labrador for nearly 150 years. Enjoy a hike along the coast to the HMS Raleigh shipwreck site and view whales, icebergs, and fossils along the way.
