West Point Lighthouse

The West Point lighthouse was built in 1916 on the most westerly point of Tasmania.

It was replaced in 1982 by the Bluff Hill Point Lighthouse a short distance to the south. All that remains is the concrete base.

Access

The lighthouse grounds are open all year round. All that remains is the concrete base.
