Point Stephens Lighthouse and Fingal Island

Historical Sites and Heritage Locations

Point Stephens Lighthouse stands tall and elegant on Fingal Island with a view over the rocks of Fingal Bay. The coastal views from the island back to the mainland are worth the effort to get there.

Built in 1862, Point Stephens Lighthouse features a swept tower base and first floor entrance that give a flared appearance. This construction, along with the terrace of Lighthouse Keepers' quarters within the lighthouse precinct makes Point Stephens unique among Australian lighthouses.
