About Little Fitzroy Island Lighthouse
A cylindrical red fiberglass tower, standing 4 meters tall, was constructed in 1992 on Little Fitzroy Island. Its light has a focal height of 33 meters and emits a white flash every 10 seconds. The lighthouse has a geographic range of 15.9 nautical miles. While the island site is open to the public, the tower itself is not accessible. This modern structure replaced an earlier light on the island, continuing its navigational role.
Why it matters: The lighthouse guides vessels navigating the waters around Little Fitzroy Island, an area frequented by recreational boaters and commercial tour operators.
