Review:

Peggy's Cove Lighthouse , also known as Peggy's Point, is located on the shores of Nova Scotia. It is the main attraction on the popular Lighthouse Trail scenic drive. The red-and-white lighthouse is currently used by the Canadian Coast Guard to mark the entrance of Margaret's Bay.

Built in 1868, the 49-foot-tall Peggy's Cove Lighthouse has been deemed one of the most recognizable lighthouses in the world. Visitors can walk around the base of Peggy's Cove Lighthouse and explore the granite outcropping that extends out toward the Atlantic Ocean, but tourists should use caution since storms and large waves can make the area unsafe.
