1. How to Apply to Become a Lighthouse Keeper

2. How to Obtain an Up-to-Date Weather Report from a BC Lighthouse

3. Glossary of Terms and Definitions for Lighthouses

4. Lighthouse Keeper Database Homepage
- a Listing of Lighthouse Keepers from 1800s to Present

For your advance information,
no British Columbia lighthouses are open for Bed & Breakfast (B&B).



Note: As you read through the stories, click on the highlighted name of a lighthouse
and it will take you to a map of automated and manned BC lighthouses and show you the location.

Clicking on a red star will take you to a footnote or supply additional text information.

If you have Google Earth running on your computer, just click on any of the Google Earth icons
next to the name to locate the town or lighthouse.

Here is a downloadable KMZ file for Google Earth listing ALL manned and unmanned lighthouses on the BC Coast.

And finally I would like to thank my son for all his help and the use of his server
without which none of this would have been possible.


If you have something to contribute,
wish to correct something,
or just comment, please email me.
