New Brunswick-02044 - Head Harbour (East Quoddy) Lighthouse PLEASE, NO invitations, graphics or self promotions, THEY WILL BE DELETED. My photos are FREE to use, just give me credit and it would be nice if you let me know, thanks. This lighthouse is located across the border in Canada so you will need a valid passport issued by the country you are from in order to get there and back. You can get closer to the lighthouse but it has to be at low tide, I was not there then. This lighthouse was built in 1829 on the northern tip of Campobello Island, New Brunswick. It is the oldest surviving lighthouse in New Brunswick. The lighthouse is a wooden octagonal tower. The tower height is 15.5 meters (51ft).
