Wilsons Promontory Lighthouse

Lonely Planet may earn a commission from affiliate links on our site. All recommendations and reviews reflect our own independent opinions.

Close to being on the southernmost tip of mainland Australia, this 19m granite lighthouse dates back to 1859. It's only accessible on foot, via a 19.2km (one-way) walk from Telegraph Saddle car park, so most visitors stay overnight at the lighthouse keepers' cottages, or Roaring Meg campground, 5.2km away. Tours are available daily; contact the park office to make arrangements.
