About Norah Head Lighthouse
Also known as: Norah Head Light
This white concrete lighthouse, built in 1903, stands 90 meters tall with its light positioned 46 meters above sea level. The tower features a lantern and emits a white flash every 15 seconds, visible for 26 nautical miles. Originally powered by kerosene, the light was electrified in 1961 and later automated in 1994. The structure includes the original Chance Bros. lantern and a Fresnel lens.
Why it matters: This lighthouse is the last of the James Barnet style to be constructed and was the final staffed lighthouse built in New South Wales.
