- INTERESTING FACTS
- AUSTRALIAN LIGHTHOUSES
- As an island continent with an extensive coastline stretching over 20,000 kilometres, Australia has always relied heavily on lighthouses to provide navigation for essential shipping routes.
- With over 250 lighthouses positioned around the coastline, Australia has a wealth of history attached to these manmade landmarks.
- Australia’s first & longest operating navigational light is the Macquarie Lighthouse in Sydney which was originally built in 1818 from locally mined sandstone.
- Many of the initial lighthouses constructed around the coast were built from the commonly found sandstone & a majority of these structures still stand today.
- Even though all Australian lighthouses are now self operating, the romance of the lighthouse still draws many visitors to these structures.
- Byron Bay & Cape Leeuwin are examples of historic lighthouses that have become iconic tourist attractions for both Australians & overseas visitors.
