Cape Moreton Lighthouse

Highlights

Step back in time at Cape Moreton Lighthouse, Queensland’s first lighthouse, built in 1857! Perched on a rocky headland, it offers amazing views of dolphins, turtles, and whales during migration season. Inside the old keeper’s cottage, you can learn about the island’s history and how the lighthouse helped sailors navigate safely. The rocky surroundings make this spot perfect for exploring and taking awesome photos.
