Contact

We are now closed for the summer, 2024 season. We may be open some weekend days for a few hours weather and volunteers permitting. Thanks to our community and visitors (over 2000!) for another successful season!

Group tours may be available by contacting us in advance.

The Saturna Heritage Centre at the Fog Alarm Building needs you! We will be looking for volunteers to host at the FAB and welcome guests into the Saturna Heritage Centre with Kyla this summer! The shifts are short (2-4 hours) and flexible! This is a great opportunity to learn more about the FAB and Saturna History and get involved in the community. RSVP to saturnaheritagecentre@gmail.com if you are interested! We also have ongoing heritage projects. Are you interested in Saturna history, especially First Nations’ presence for millenia? Contact us to become involved. Visit the Timeline on our site for a taste.

And we need volunteers to become involved with administration, volunteer coordination, and, of course, fundraising.

Location: East Point Light Station in the Gulf Islands National Park Reserve, Tekteksen (Saturna Island), the colonial project on unceded land known as B.C.
