Lubec Channel Light, Maritime lighthouse in Lubec Channel, Washington County, United States.

This cylindrical white lighthouse stands 12 meters tall on a concrete foundation in shallow waters near the United States-Canada border.

The United States Army Corps of Engineers constructed this navigational structure in 1890 to guide vessels through the dredged channel between Lubec and Eastport.

The lighthouse served as residence for keepers until 1939, with Frederick Morong as first keeper and Earl Ashby as final operator before automation.

Visitors can observe the lighthouse from boats in Lubec Channel or from distant viewpoints along Boot Cove Road near South Lubec Beach.

The structure belongs to a rare category of sparkplug lighthouses, with only three remaining examples of this architectural style in Maine.
