• A WorldWeb.com Travel Guide to Lighthouses in Bamfield, BC, British Columbia.
Pachena Point Lighthouse
The last original wood lighthouse tower on Canada's west coast, this light is also still maintained by a light keeper. The lighthouse was constructed in 1907 after the wreck of the Valencia, and was first lit in May 1908. The glass lens, 3 m tall, 2.5 m wide and weighing 400 kg was brought by boat around Cape Horn. The 1000-watt bulb puts out four million candlepower and is visible from Washington State's Olympic Peninsula.
Cape Beale Lighthouse
This landmark was renamed by Captain Charles William Barkley in honour of John Beale, from its original name of Punta de Alegria. Cape Beale is a prominent rock point fringed with reefs; over two dozen shipwrecks have occurred here. The Cape Beale Light, established in 1874, sits 51m (167 feet) above sea level, installed on a red square skeleton tower.
