Point Hicks Lighthouse

Victoria


This remote lighthouse has two comfortable, heritage-listed cottages and one double bungalow, which originally housed the assistant lighthouse keepers. The cottages sleep eight to 12, and have sensational ocean views, fireplaces and kitchens. Bring your own food, bedding and towels, or you can hire linen from $18 per person. To get here you'll need to walk 2.2km from the car park.

There's a minimum stay of two nights, five during peak periods. At the time of research the road here was inaccessible due to damage from the 2020 bushfires, so check with Parks Victoria before setting out.
