Beautiful spot, windy

Russell Wilson

Sigurd Hinojosa

Len Harris

Beautiful hike. Amazing views

Norlee Flaaten

Power of the sea against the cliffs. Historic lighthouse

Gary O

Watch for falling concrete

Normand Cyr

Great stop just across Fortress Louisbourg. And it's free. Must see for the view

Kevin Beachy

Nice secluded lighthouse. If you enjoy hikes along the ocean, there's a trail that runs a mile or so out past the lighthouse and around a few small bays and over some points. Terrific views.

Della Slade

Amazing hike!

Ramesh Manni

Breathtaking view, nothing can come close

Pam Down

Great photo op. Beautiful scenery. Nice parking lot. But you can't actually go in. Very historic location.

James Leishman

Definitely a good place to check out if you're visiting Cape Breton

J Cline

Lighthouse is in relatively good shape but the parking lot could use some work.

Nicole Renee

It’s a nice lighthouse and a pretty view from the coast. Worth the stop if you’re already at the Fortress.

Stephen Ray

Great place, historic lighthouse

Joshua Nason

So beautiful I proposed here !

Ben Wells

Great view with large waves crashing against the rocks.

Neil Frelick

The views are spectacular, the historical sign posts are interesting and engaging. A concerted effort to restore this heritage site ought to be made BEFORE some of that spalling concrete injures someone.

Catherine Lachance

You can even camp on the site

Nadeem Khan

Natural beauty you can see here

Open Ocean with rocks . Special trail with small hills. Check the weather because it is foggy and rainy in louisbourg

Andrew McPhee

This is a great stop. It's cool to see the 3 lighthouses and learn about the importance of the location. This stop takes 1 -2 hours depending how fast you go.

Peace and Calm. Nature friendly place.

Nice little light house. Narrow roads to get to it and not too far from the Fort. There were only a couple other cars so you can get some great photos. The view of the ocean was nice as well.

For lighthouse lovers this is one of the great ones. First lighthouse on Canada's shores was here. Lots of wave action and photo opps.

ricoboost

nice pieces on history

HHBenfica

(Translated) So there is no shortage of lighthouses here. The east of Canada and the USA is practically a Mecca for people with a lighthouse fetish. This one is opposite the fortress, as the name suggests. You have a good view of …

DalJit Singh

It was peaceful and wonderful environment

Shahbaz Qamar

Stunning light house. A must visit

Sue Kennedy

Beautiful coast

Harsha Veeravalli

This lighthouse overlooking the Fortress Louisburg has spectacular views. The place can be remarkably brilliant during sunsets. There are a couple of Muskoka chairs for you to sit and marvel at the beautiful landscape. There are a couple of trails that start from this place. The lighthouse can be reached by unpaved road from the Louisburg harbour. This place also has some history attached to it. British had attacked the French warships from here during the sieges of 18th century. There is ample parking space right next to the lighthouse. There are plaques with brief history of the place mentioned in them.

Tracy Cuajao

Lovely and memorable area!

Lord Lynn

Really cool and relaxing. You can sit on the rocks and just hear and see the waves. Across the water you can see Fort Louisbourg which is pretty cool. Also enjoy some trails!

Pradeep LG

Brett Binns

Arrive early or late in day for best pics (as aways) and consider walking the shore trail too. It was smooth and only a little hilly but very scenic.

jen fraser

Great views. Good place for storm watching, and you get a nice view of the fortress when it's clear.

Daryl Harris, AMP

Great place for a quick stop if you are in Louisburg, if we had more time would have definitely checked out the hiking trail from the lighthouse.

Great views on a sunny day. Learned there were multiple locations of the actual lighthouse. There is also a nice easy trail to the water.

A nice lighthouse with a view of Louisbourg in the distance, it is just a lighthouse. The Lighthouse trail which starts here however is a wonderful walk with spectacular views. (See my review of the trail.).

SJay C.

Beautiful! Enjoyed the walk around the trail; so many different views, it just keeps getting better.

K DX

The views are amazing.

Sebastian Kluth

Louisbourg Lighthouse was originally the first lighthouse in Canada and the second in the New World. The first lighthouse was destroyed and what remains today are ruins of the foundations as well as one of the replacements made in the early twentieth century. There are commemorative plaques that explain the history of the different lighthouses. It's a beautiful spot but the most recent lighthouse can't be visited and seems to be in poor shape.

Melody Macdonald

A beautiful spot to take it all in!!

sreejith t

Bryan Roy

Great views! Great hike! Beautiful place!

Sree Venkatesh

One of the most visited place by me. I love to spend time out there with my friends. Trail seems to be the easiest and pretty spot to go for a walk. The only problem is there is no tim near to it. Lol!!

LD Sweet

Beautiful sight

Colleen Sample

Beautiful place to visit, hike the trail

Glück Auf

(Translated) A beautiful to behold Leuchtrum in the middle of even more beautiful nature From the lighthouse you also have the opportunity to walk the Louisbourg Lighthouse Trail The hike is not that hard so I would rather arrange it as a walk at least the first part (Original) Ein schön anzusehender Leuchtrum in mitten noch schönerer Natur Vom Leuchtturm aus hat man auch die Möglichkeit den Louisbourg Lighthous Trail zu Wandern Die Wanderung ist nicht so schwer deshalb würde ich es ehr als Spaziergang einordnen zumindest den ersten Teil

Jean-guy Leblond

(Translated) Fairy to see absolutely (Original) Féerique à voir absolument

Jeevan Francis

The behind the light house gives a perfect view around sunset

Kyle T

The trail is amazing and is different almost every time we visit because of the possibilities with weather. We just got married there and it could not have gone better.

Brian Willems

Take the hiking trail about 5 km one way, bring lawn chairs and enjoy views of Atlantic Ocean on rocks and views of Fort Louisbourg beautiful vistas great for photos

Raqeem Haq

A wonderful place to walk, take pictures or relax. Highly recommend it!

Patrick Desrochers

(Translated) Very beautiful and windy! (Original) Très beau et venteux!

Darragh Douwes

Stunning views, and beautiful trails! Felt like being in Ireland!! We went around sunset.. Fantastic photos during this time!

Kima Hazelwood

Miranda Covey

My favorite lighthouse. Love it. Views are excellent. Easy access. A nearby hiking trail. A must visit if in the area. But it can be chilly even in summer so bring a sweater.

Emma Bryson

A very nice walk! The scenery is amazing, but it is a bit cold.

Francois Parent

This site is where the French built the first Lighthouse in Canada. It also offers a nice view on the Fortress of Louisbourg. It is recommended to visit in the morning to get proper light for the Fortress.

Judy Reid

Had a great time in Sydney NS! Beautiful views, great beaches and super friendly people!

Denise McSpadden

Plenty of parking, a small public toilet, you can get right up to the lighthouse if you're able to walk up a steep, rocky/stoney trail on one side or a slightly less steep grass trail on the opposite side. Interesting information on the plaques. Stunning views all around! You can see Louisbourg fortress in the distance on a clear day. Keep hold of small children, more so near the cliff edges etc as there's nothing to prevent falls. Well worth a visit if you enjoy sea views. FYI, you can't get inside the lighthouse.

Lữ Khách

An amazing place for hiking, taking photo, and enjoying the beautiful nature landscape. It is our first time here but definitely we will come back. So love this place!

Visited last year and just got back from visiting again, Aug 26, 2019. Great location and the trail gives some awesome views Definitely worth visiting.

Alison Chase

Worth the trip....bring a wind jacket and a sweatshirt...in October it is cold! Gloves are good idea tool. Still, worth the trip.

Lionel Dudziak

Corinn Zalewski

To reach the lighthouse there is a small hill to climb. If you choose to stop by earlier in the day, as we did, take care when climbing the loose gravel paths, as they can be a little slippery.

Chris Sakalauskas

Beautiful spot to take in the sites and learn a little history.

Mel G

Great stories shared by all the knowledgeable staff there. Never have I found history so interesting. Must see for adults and kids alike. You will spend more time there than you thought you would!

Roxanne Caron

(Translated) Great place to watch the sunset and walk a bit (Original) Superbe endroit où admirer le coucher du soleil et marcher un peu

Sylvain Forget

(Translated) Very beautiful landscape, but the lighthouse if not better maintained, it will not last long when these rendered that you post "possible debris fall" it is disturbing. (Original) Très beau paysage, mais le phare si il est pas mieux entretenue, il durera pas longtemps quand ces rendu que tu affiches "chute de débris possible" c'est inquiétant.

Marie Sabourin

(Translated) Beautiful view when the weather is nice; it was a little drizzle. We see the Fortress of Louisbourg. (Original) Belle vue lorsqu'il fait beau; nous c'était une petite bruine. On y voit la Forteresse de Louisbourg.

Karen Ashcroft

Beautiful place. Nice to see the animals. Enjoyed watching the dancing of upper class people. Gift shop should have sold small hot chocolate mugs and pewter glasses. Also adult authentic peasant shirts like what they wore.

D. T

Was there for sunrise. Parking lot is right next to the light house. Easy access.

Dustin Blackledge

No summer homes just nature, and a light house...

martin langlois

(Translated) The lighthouse could use a little renovation but is still impressive to see! (Original) Le phare aurait besoin d'une petite rénovation mais reste impressionnant à voir!

Beth J

Breathtaking and beautiful! Would recommend making the trip out here to see this. Trails to hike but amazing just to wander around the lighthouse. Can get quite windy so dress warm. Also can get wet so bring good shoes that won’t get soaked.

Rachel Macleod

Such a cool lighthouse, really informative plaques and a beautiful view.

Prabhleen Kaur

Rob Einarson

1 word BEAUTIFUL!!!!

Jacob Van Dijk

It's a very nice place with beautiful views

Céline Castonguay

(Translated) We can move in time when this lighthouse was in operation. The view of the seaside is fantastic. Beautiful discovery. (Original) On peut se transporter dans le temps où ce phare était en fonction. La vue du bord de mer est fantastique. Belle découverte.

Melanie LeBlanc

Beautiful trail! Amazing views! Worth the trip!

Els Segeren

I love to drive over to the lighthouse, to go on the trail, what is a lovely well kept trail, along the edge of the ocean. The only problem is when you enter the unpaved road leading to the lighthouse. You go over this road on your own risk, that could end in a trip that can cost a lot of repair on your car. It is a shame that it is not safe to drive there, with these kind of road conditions. Parks Canada owns the site, and I can't understand that they not look after their property, so that our tourists can safely visit this historic site.

Jania Roy

Love the trail

Cherri

Changed my life

Mark Elgar

Nice picturesque spot with impressive cliffs.down to the sea.

Jane Doe

Matt Green

Nice lighthouse on a very pretty spot. Good for photos and an excellent view of crashing waves in the North Atlantic.

Victor Duckering

We just thoroughly enjoyed Cape Breton Island and the light houses are part of it. To get to this one you have to drive along a narrow little road that winds through a little village. Fun.

Amy MacIntyre

So calming and beautiful!
