Review:
Located on the incredibly picturesque sandstone cliffs of Prince Edward Island, Cape Tryon Lighthouse helps mariners navigate the shallow waters between Richmond Bay and New London. The original Cape Tryon Lighthouse was decommissioned in 1964 and replaced with the 40-foot-tall structure that stands at Park Corner today.
Lucy Maud Montgomery, the author of Anne of Green Gables, once lived on Prince Edward Island and likely used the Cape Tryon Lighthouse as a model for a lighthouse mentioned in her book Anne's House of Dreams. Cape Tryon Lighthouse was recently acquired by a trust whose goal is to preserve the seashore in the area.
