Cape Naturaliste Lighthouse

Cape Naturaliste Lighthouse, located on Western Australia's southwestern coast, is a historic maritime navigational aid built in 1904. Perched on a steep headland, it helps ships safely navigate the often treacherous coastline and avoid dangerous rocks. The lighthouse stands about 20 meters tall and features a powerful light that is visible for many kilometers. It also serves as a popular tourist attraction, offering guided tours and panoramic views of the Indian Ocean. The lighthouse’s design and operation have evolved over time, but it remains an important symbol of maritime safety and an iconic part of the region’s maritime history.
