Estevan Point Lighthouse is located on the headland of the same name in the Hesquiat Peninsula Provincial Park on the west coast of Vancouver Island, Canada. During the Second World War, in 1942, the Estevan Point Lighthouse was fired upon by the Japanese submarine I-26, marking the first enemy attack on Canadian soil since the Fenian raids of 1866 and 1871. The Canadian Coast Guard still maintains Estevan Point, with the light still active as of 2022. The light emits a double flash every 15 seconds with the focal plane located at 37.5 m (123 ft) above sea level.
