Lighthouse · Washington County, Maine

Saint Croix River Light is a lighthouse in Washington County, Maine. Maine has 70 lighthouses on record at Wayfarrow, 11 of them in Washington County.

Its light sits 102 feet above the water; the light characteristic is recorded as Fl W 2.5s (a white flash every 2.5 seconds), with a range of about 7 nautical miles.

Current sources show this lighthouse no longer stands. Status check, 2026-11: The lighthouse (station 1857, rebuilt 1901) burned down in 1976 and was never rebuilt; only a modern skeleton-tower light built after the fire and an 1885 boathouse stand on Dochet Island, so the record's 23 m height is the skeleton tower's. It stands at 45.1282° N, 67.1338° W.
