Lighthouses in Victoria
Towering above the landscape, these magnificent lighthouses provide a glimpse of another era, as well as fascinating places to stay today.
Lighthouses were used to warn ships that they were approaching dangerous coastlines, shoals or reefs and were even used to guide pilots to a safe landing. Perched high on a cliff or amongst coastal rocks, they are one of the oldest known aids of maritime navigation.
