Augusta: Cape Leeuwin Lighthouse Tour – Western Australia, Australia

EXPERIENCE

The historic Cape Leeuwin Lighthouse is situated at the most south-westerly point of Australia; the tip of a spectacular peninsula where the Southern and Indian Oceans meet. As the tallest lighthouse on mainland Australia, Cape Leeuwin Lighthouse is a must-see attraction.

Prepare to take a trip through maritime history and learn how this famous landmark was constructed from local limestone in 1895. You will also learn how the site still functions as a vital working lighthouse for vessels navigating the treacherous cape.

Your guided tour will take you to the top of the tower, where a vast seascape of crashing waves and wild rocky shoreline unfolds. Between the months of May and September whales are often sighted from the tower as they migrate along the coastline. The spectacular surroundings are also enhanced at this important heritage site by the beautifully restored keepers’ cottages.
