About Woody Point Lighthouse
Also known as: Woody Point (Margate)
The Woody Point light is housed within a cylindrical concrete water tower painted white, standing 50 meters tall. Its light is situated 71 meters above sea level and emits a continuous yellow beam. This structure, located on the Redcliffe Peninsula northeast of Brisbane, Australia, provides a geographic range of 21.5 nautical miles. While the site is accessible to the public, the tower itself remains closed. It is near the port of Scarborough, 2.8 kilometers away.
Why it matters: This light aids navigation for vessels operating in the waters of the Redcliffe Peninsula, an area frequented by local boating and coastal traffic north of Brisbane. The repurposing of a water tower for maritime safety demonstrates a practical solution for the region's navigational needs.
