About Central Hawke's Bay District Lighthouse Lighthouse
A white, cylindrical concrete and fiberglass tower, 4 meters tall, stands on a remote headland 80 kilometers southwest of Cape Kidnappers. With a focal height of 41 meters, it emits a white light with two flashes every 10 seconds, visible for 17.2 nautical miles. This automated light serves a solitary function on an isolated stretch of coast. The nearest port, Napier, is 45.2 kilometers away.
Why it matters: This light helps mariners avoid hazards off Blackhead Point, a significant headland on the New Zealand coast. Its consistent operation aids safe passage in a less-trafficked but important maritime zone.
