Tacking Point Lighthouse

Top choice


This little lighthouse (1879) commands a headland offering immense views along the coast. It’s a great spot from which to watch the waves roll in to long, beautiful Lighthouse Beach; it's particularly lovely at sunset. The viewpoint looks out to the Three Brothers Mountains, a place of spiritual importance to the local Birpai Aboriginal people.
