Located at the island’s northern tip, Queensland's oldest operating lighthouse is the place to come for great views when the humpback whales are passing by (generally June to October). Dating from 1857, it's the sole stone lighthouse in the state and the only one built before Queensland's separation from the Colony of New South Wales in 1859.
