Travel Instructions: The land surrounding the Porlier Pass Range Lights is owned by the Penelakut Tribe, and permission to cross their property should be obtained before trying to visit the lights by land. To reach the lights from the ferry landing at Sturdies Bay on Galiano Island, continue straight on Sturdies Bay Road for 3km (1.8 miles), and then bear left onto Porlier Pass Road and follow it for 24km (15 miles). At this point, you will reach the Penelakut tribal land and will have a short hike to the rear light. The front light is not easily reached from the rear light, but I understand there is a trail to it.

The lighthouse is owned by the Canadian Coast Guard. Grounds open, tower closed.
