Amphitrite Point Lighthouse, Maritime lighthouse in Ucluelet, Canada

The concrete lighthouse structure rises 6 meters above Amphitrite Point with a white tower and red lantern, guiding ships along the Pacific coast.

The first wooden tower from 1906 was destroyed by weather in 1914, leading to construction of the current concrete lighthouse in March 1915.

The lighthouse bears the name of Amphitrite, wife of Poseidon, connecting maritime navigation with Greek mythology on the British Columbia coast.

Visitors can access the lighthouse via the Wild Pacific Trail, with parking available at Coast Guard Road for a short walk to the structure.

The lighthouse participates in the British Columbia Shore Station Oceanographic Program, collecting water temperature and salinity data since 1934.
