North Cape Light

The North Cape, Prince Edward Island, is desolate and wind-swept. Exposed to the full force of storms in the Gulf of St Lawerence, Its red shale cliffs are slowly eroding, and nothing besides hardy grasses can survive. The light has been keeping sailors safe since 1866. It is now fenced with the communication tower for safety reasons.
