Visitor Info
Ricardo Street parallels Niagara River in Niagara-on-the-Lake. The Niagara-on-the-Lake Sailing Club marina, which is home to the front range light but not open to the public, is located at the intersection of Ricardo Street and Melville Street. To get a view of the range lights, travel southeast on Ricardo Street, and just past the marina, turn left into the first parking lot. The front range light can be viewed from a grassy area at the end of the parking lot near the river. You can also enter a gate and walk along the river in front of a condominium complex to view the rear range light. You can walk right up to the rear range light by parking at Niagara Pumphouse Visual Art Centre at 247 Ricardo Street. The lighthouse is owned by the Canadian Coast Guard. Grounds/tower closed.
