Eddystone Point Lighthouse


Lording over Eddystone Point, just north of Ansons Bay within Mt William National Park, the 35m-high granite tower of Eddystone Point Lighthouse has warned ships off this rocky shoreline since 1889. The complex, which includes historic lighthouse keepers’ cottages, is worth a wander, though none of the structures are open to the public.
