Triple Island Lightstation, Federal heritage lighthouse in North Coast Regional District, Canada
The concrete structure consists of a square three-story building with an octagonal tower extending 22 meters above the rocky foundation point.
The lighthouse entered service in 1921 after four years of construction to guide vessels through the dangerous passages between Brown and Bell waterways.
The Canadian Coast Guard personnel maintain continuous operations at the station, working in 28-day rotations to ensure maritime safety.
The lighthouse projects a white light visible for 16 nautical miles with a specific pattern of two flashes every nine seconds.
From 1939 to 1970, the station collected daily water temperature and salinity measurements for the Department of Fisheries and Oceans research program.
