Harrison Point Lighthouse

13° 18.5′ N · 59° 38.9′ W

The lighthouse on Barbados's north-west shoulder, the key landmark when rounding the north end for Port St Charles. Harrison Reefs lie offshore.

Practical

Position from Wikipedia. The OCC port report warns that the light is obscured on bearings out to about 200° by buildings of the old Arawak cement works, and that the cement-plant stack (about 200 ft) can be more visible; give Harrison Reefs and the coral heads off the point a wide berth. See the north-west approach passage.
