St George’s Harbor Lighthouse (Fort George Beacon)

Grenada

Inactive at least since 2017. A Fresnel lens, probably fifth order, was formerly mounted in the tower but has been removed, we hope for safekeeping. Located on the north side of the entrance to the harbor of St. George's, the capital of Grenada. Site and tower apparently open. Site manager: Government of Grenada. ARLHS GRD-001; ex-Admiralty J5834; ex-NGA 15176.
