Cape Otway Lightstation



Cape Otway Lightstation is the oldest surviving of its kind on mainland Australia.
 


Lighthouse keepers cottage
 
 
 


The Cape Otway lightstation is an iconic feature of the area.  Having been in operation since 1848, visitors can take a tour to top of lighthouse
 
 
 


We managed to climb the spiral staircase to the top & were rewarded with an amazing view of the coastline in both directions & Southern Ocean
