The Seal Island Lighthouse Museum In Barrington Nova Scotia is a 35 foot high replica of the top half of the Seal Island Lighthouse. It is crowned by the cast-iron lantern which was removed from the light in 1978 and houses the Fresnel Lens which was also removed at that time.

Seal Island lies off the south west tip of Nova Scotia at "the elbow of the Bay of Fundy", where the broad mouth of the bay meets the waters of the open Atlantic. For more than three centuries storms, fog and powerful tides have conspired to wreck scores of ships on the island and it's surrounding ledges. At least 160 vessels have come to grief in the area, making Seal Island historically one of Atlantic Canada's most dangerous areas for shipping, along with Sable and St. Paul's Islands. Although no major wrecks have occurred since the 1940s, the waters around Seal Island continue to command the respect and caution of fishermen and mariners.
