Most of the community forms the Local service district of Beaver Harbour, which was established in 1971.[2] It is also a census subdivision of Census Canada. Since the formation of the LSD, the community has expanded past the original boundaries into the LSD of the parish of Pennfield.[citation needed]

In 1866 it had about 30 resident families, and grew to a population of 150 by 1871, the 500 in 1898.[3] As of 2021, the population was 291.[1]

It is the site of the Lighthouse Point Light, originally built in 1875 and subsequently rebuilt. It is a fiberglass tapered cylindrical tower with balcony and lantern.[4]
