Cape Leeuwin Lighthouse, Augusta WA.

CAPE LEEUWIN LIGHTHOUSE

Where the Southern and Indian Oceans meet

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

Take a trip through maritime history and learn how this famous landmark was constructed from local limestone in 1895, and is still a vital working lighthouse for vessels navigating the treacherous cape.

Your guide will lead you to the top of the tower, where a vast seascape will unfold before you. Be awed by the crashing waves and the wilderness of the landscape. There are regular sightings of dolphins and you may even spot whales migrating between May and September.

Plan time to include a walk around the grounds and enjoy the spectacular surroundings at this beautifully restored heritage site.

Complete your visit by relaxing over coffee, home-made scones and light refreshments at the Cape Leeuwin Cafe.
