Welcome to the Port Bickerton Lighthouse! Located on Nova Scotia’s rugged Eastern Shore, our lighthouse has guided North Atlantic mariners to safety and security for over a century, and continues to do so today.

Since 1997, it has also been the site of the Nova Scotia Lighthouse Interpretive Centre, which is open on a seasonal basis to offer information to visitors about the history of the Port Bickerton Lighthouse and Nova Scotia’s rich maritime lighthouse tradition.

Since May, 2014, the newly-renovated lightkeeper’s residence on site is being operated as an artist retreat.
