The wonderful panoramic view of the coastline, coupled with this historic old wooden lighthouse, makes it a perfect setting for photographers, artists, and sightseers. This is definitely a "must-see"! Swallowtail is one of the most photographed lighthouses in New Brunswick. Interpretive panels, a fog bell, commemorative deck, lovely wooden benches, and picnic tables are on site. Access to the lighthouse is down a flight of 54 stairs, across a wooden footbridge, and along a gravel path. However, the lighthouse can also be viewed from an observation area near the parking lot. A Welcome Centre is located at the entrance and houses a small gift shop. In the summer, you can tour inside the new lighthouse museum for a small fee, which includes access to climbing the stairs to the top of the lighthouse. You can easily walk between the lighthouse and the keeper's house, just like the keepers did for years, on a boardwalk installed in 2014. Established in 1860 (pre-Confederation), altered in 1980, and restored in 2013-2014, this active lighthouse still has its original tower, one of only a handful of remaining wooden light towers in Canada, and has been recognized by the Federal Heritage Building Review Office. Now owned by the Village of Grand Manan, the property is managed by the Swallowtail Keepers Society, which has been carefully restoring the property and lighthouse. This is an excellent spot to watch the sunrise, see the ferry as it passes by, or to check out the interesting rock formations. You can also have a good look at the herring weirs (fish traps located below the rock cliffs). Watch for seals, harbour porpoises, whales, and seabirds. A bald eagle or peregrine falcon may also fly by.
