Not the most impressive lighthouse. I guess it is best described as functional.
A cool day out exploring this beautiful park, watched some seals playfully swim past before capturing a happy snap
Rated: for Overall Experience
A long cycle ride, COVID 19 exercise, out to the lighthouse from Port Lincoln - 88km round trip. Good ride but last 11km to the actual lighthouse is a bit of a bone shaker on a bike as the gravel road is corrugated. It’s a very scenic location, commercial and recreational fishing boats aplenty the day we were there. TFTC. 2BluFish
