Description
The White Shoal Light is a lighthouse located 20 miles west of the Mackinac Bridge in Lake Michigan. It is an active aid to navigation.
Waugoshance Lighthouse was established in 1851 to help mark the entrance to Lake Michigan from the Straits of Mackinac, but navigational hazards lurked unseen in the waters north of the lighthouse. Four-and-a-half miles northwest of Waugoshance Lighthouse lies White Shoal, covered by just five feet of water. Obviously the White Shoal Light was desperately needed.
