Pointe Saline (lantern)
Grenada
The original lighthouse was an 8.5 m (28 ft) steel post supporting a lantern and gallery. In 1932, the lantern was transferred to the top of a 15 m (49 ft) concrete (?) tower painted with black and white horizontal bands.
The light was deactivated, and the tower was demolished in the early 1980s. The lantern was removed from its original place at Grenada International Airport.
There is a very small beacon (Admiralty J5830.7; NGA 15164) at the original location. Site open.
