Point Prim Lighthouse, Prince Edward Island, Canada
Built in 1845, the Point Prim lighthouse is the first and oldest lighthouse on Prince Edward Island and one of only a few round brick lighthouses in Canada. In the early 19th century, sea trade between Canada and Europe increased rapidly and so did shipwrecks and disasters at sea. As Charlottetown grew it required more merchandise and as shipping traffic increased, so did the number of shipwrecks along our shores. The demand for a guiding beacon into Charlottetown Harbor peaked in 1841, when the colony’s General Assembly was petitioned by concerned merchants and ship owners. There was great debate about where the Lighthouse should be built. Lieutenant Governor Charles Fitz Roy wrote letters to captains of the Royal Navy requesting their opinion. Finally it was agreed that the best place for general use in navigating the Northumberland Strait, would be Point Prim.
It took 3 years for the Assembly to agree upon and appropriate the proper funding and location for a lighthouse. Finally in 1844, an advisory committee, submitted a report, recommending a tower, 60 feet in height. At that time, the prominent architect Isaac Smith, who had designed Government House and would later design Province House, drew up the plans for the lighthouse tower. On March 31, 1845, a committee appointed by the House of Assembly, of 22 men travelled 16 miles over the ice in 10 horse drawn sleighs for the purpose of surveying the site for the intended lighthouse. The group, led by William Douse local MPP and agent for Lord Selkirk, included architect Isaac Smith and the land surveyor L.W. Gall. The Point Prim acreage was owned by the Earl of Selkirk. It was his Lordship’s wish to donate this 9 acre property to the Colony for the prestigious Point Prim Lighthouse.

Point Prim Lighthouse, Prince Edward Island
The Point Prim Lighthouse holds the distinction of being the first lighthouse built on Prince Edward Island, constructed in 1845 with the light being lit for the first time on December 4, 1845. This tower was designed by noted architect Isaac Smith, who also designed Province House in Charlottetown. The Tower is also noteworthy in that it is one of only two circular brick lighthouses in Canada. Although constructed of brick the tower was covered in wood shingles in 1847 due to deterioration of the brick caused by freeze/thaw cycles and other environmental factors.
The Point Prim Lighthouse stands 61 feet tall and has five levels including the ground floor, three landings & lantern deck.
A museum is operated in the summer with guided tours.
Location: Located on Point Prim, 10.9km west of Belfast.

(SOLD) 178 Ship Wreck Shore Road Point Prim Waterfront across from Charlottetown PEI Real Estate
(SOLD) The Captains Watch Cottage was built in 2001 and was designed with the ideas of the owner and architect Jack Miller. Your new cottage was built to replicate typical Point Prim farm homesteads in a scaled down cottage version. This property, owned and farmed by the Gillis family for over 200 years was built on the top of the north-side of a 100 Acre farm overlooking Hillsborough Bay. The Gillis family landed from Scotland on the Polly ship surrounding the shores of the Captains Watch cottage in 1803. The panoramic views from the red cliffs of Captains Watch are spectacular. Your new escape overlooks the waters where the Polly ship sailed in from Scotland with the settlers in 1803. The name, Shipwreck Shores came from the knowledge of the dozens of ship wrecks off these shores during the golden age of sailing. You will enjoy the amazing sunsets as well as the many cruise ships coming to and from the Charlottetown Harbour. As well, you can enjoy a closer look from your observation deck nestled on the cliffs of Shipwreck Shores.

Red Foxes in Point Prim, PEI
Filmed on Prince Edward Island, Canada
Mother & 2 pups. :)
From The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint Exupery:
It was then that the fox appeared.
Good morning, said the fox.
Good morning, the little prince responded politely, although when he turned around he saw nothing.
I am right here, the voice said, under the apple tree.
Who are you? asked the little prince, and added, You are very pretty to look at.
I am a fox, the fox said.
Come and play with me, proposed the little prince. I am so unhappy.
I cannot play with you, the fox said. I am not tamed.
Ah! Please excuse me, said the little prince.
But after some thought, he added:
What does that mean--'tame'?...
...It is an act too often neglected, said the fox. It means to establish ties.
'To establish ties'?
Just that, said the fox. To me, you are still nothing more than a little boy who is just like a hundred thousand other little boys. And I have no need of you. And you, on your part, have no need of me. To you, I am nothing more than a fox like a hundred thousand other foxes. But if you tame me, then we shall need each other. To me, you will be unique in all the world. To you, I shall be unique in all the world...
I am beginning to understand, said the little prince...
...My life is very monotonous, he said. I hunt chickens; men hunt me. All the chickens are just alike, and all them men are just alike. And, in consequence, I am a little bored. But if you tame me, it will be as if the sun came to shine on my life. I shall know the sound of a step that will be different from all the others. Other steps send me hurrying back underneath the ground. Yours will call me, like music, out of my burrow. And then look: you see the grain-fields down yonder? I do not eat bread. Wheat is of no use to me. The wheat fields have nothing to say to me. And that is sad. But you have hair that is the color of gold. Think how wonderful that will be when you have tamed me! The grain, which is also golden, will bring me back the thought of you. And I shall love to listen to the wind in the wheat...
The fox gazed at the little prince, for a long time.
Please--tame me! he said...
...So the little prince tamed the fox. And when the hour of his departure drew near--
Ah, said the fox, I shall cry.
It is your own fault, said the little prince. I never wished you any sort of harm; but you wanted me to tame you...
Yes, that is so, said the fox.
But now you are going to cry! said the little prince.
Yes, that is so, said the fox.
Then it has done you no good at all!
It has done me good, said the fox, because of the color of the wheat fields....
...Goodbye, he said.
Goodbye, said the fox. And now here is my secret, a very simple secret: It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye....
...Men have forgotten this truth, said the fox. But you must not forget it. You become responsible, forever, for whatever you have tamed.
