Triple Island Lightstation

Triple Island Lighthouse is a large, manned light station on Triple Island. Built in 1920 after four years of construction, the concrete station features a tower attached to a rectangular concrete structure that houses the keepers' quarters and machinery.
A Triple Island helipad occupies much of the remainder of the islet.
Canadian Coast Guard personnel man the station on a 28-day rotation. The station was designated a National [Historic Sites of Canada|National Historic Site of Canada] in 1974.
From 1939 to 1970, the Triple Island lightstation was part of the British Columbia Shore [Station Oceanographic Program], collecting coastal water temperature and salinity measurements for the Department of Fisheries and Oceans everyday for 31 years.
