Sheringham Point Light, Heritage lighthouse in Shirley, British Columbia, Canada.
The hexagonal concrete tower rises 19.5 meters above the rocky shoreline, featuring a white structure with red balcony and lantern on Vancouver Island.
The lighthouse began operations in 1912 following the SS Valencia shipwreck, under the architectural direction of William P. Anderson to guide vessels through Juan de Fuca Strait.
The Sheringham Point Lighthouse Preservation Society maintains the site since 2003, protecting the structures and ensuring public access to this maritime landmark.
Visitors can explore the lighthouse grounds through designated trails while the active third-order Fresnel lens continues guiding ships within a 17-kilometer range.
From 1968 to 1989, the lighthouse collected daily water temperature and salinity measurements for the Department of Fisheries and Oceans scientific research program.
