About

This stone structure is planted at what feels like the end of the earth. It's moody. It’s a little spooky. It could be from a Mary Shelley novel.

Rose Blanche Lighthouse is the only granite lighthouse remaining in Newfoundland. Its light has been guiding mariners since 1873. The trek to see it will take you through some of the most stunning ocean-side vistas and waterfalls.
