Boat Bluff Lighthouse stands near Klemtu at the south end of Sarah Island in Tolmie Channel on British Columbia’s Inside Passage. Established in 1907, it marks a coastal route known for narrow channels, heavy weather, and steady marine traffic. Its light sits on a 24-foot skeleton tower with a focal plane 38 feet above sea level. Unusually, the station remains staffed by resident keepers despite modern automation, and recorded keepers span from the 1930s to the present. The site is also known for its oceanic climate, with mild summers, cool winters, and exceptionally heavy rainfall that makes it one of Canada’s rainiest places.
