The Nixes island is one of the smaller islands on Boston's harbour that gets covered and uncovered by the rising tides of the Atlantic. The island has a prominent black and white structure of white wood shaped in a pyramid placed on granite. The structure is a day beacon which acts like aid to navigation for the sailors and also acts as a warning sign for the hazards of the ocean.
