Les Eclaireurs Lighthouse is a small brick tower, slightly conical in form, built in 1920 and standing 11 meters tall on the northeasternmost of the Les Eclaireurs islands in the Beagle Channel, approximately 5 nautical miles east of Ushuaia in Tierra del Fuego, Argentina. Named after the French word for "scouts," the lighthouse guides vessels through one of the southernmost shipping channels in South America.
