Information About

Point Abino, Ontario




Like many Fort Erie communities, it is located on Lake Erie beachfront, around a historic Lighthouse built by the Canadian government in 1918 . The lighthouse was automated in 1989 . Since its decommissioning in 1995 , the Point Abino Lighthouse was designated as a National Historic Site . The lighthouse is now owned by the Town of Fort Erie and is available for tours while renovations are ongoing.

Most of the homes located in the area are on large estate lots and might be better described as manors rather than cottages - definitely upper-end in real estate terms.

Because of its location on the shore of Lake Erie, Point Albino has become the location of summer homes for many of the wealthy residents of both southern Ontario and the Buffalo region of western New York.
