The Pulteney Point Lighthouse, located on Malcolm Island in British Columbia, is a historic beacon guiding boats through Queen Charlotte Strait since 1905.

The lighthouse's square concrete design with a red lantern and fog alarm building stands out against the wild backdrop of the strait, showcasing early modernism architecture.

It also has ties to the local Finnish community, who settled on the island and thrived through fishing and boat building industries.

Overall, this picturesque lighthouse adds to the maritime heritage of the area with its classic red and white color scheme.

This hike is rated as easy/moderate. Length: 2.6km, Route Type: Loop.
