Here you can see
made from the Nugget Point where there is also a lighthouse. The
nuggets are little or big rocky islets as you may observe on the
picture. The Nuggets Point lighthouse is situated at seventy six
meters over water level. From the Nuggets Point lighthouse you
will have a magnificent view of the ocean. The lighthouse first
operated in July 1870, when it was constructed it was running
with kerosene, the lighthouse needed at least two men to operate
it. The lighthouse is accessible by a short bushwalk which bring
at the end of the point. Nowadays the lighthouse is automated;
this has been done as from 1949, so now the lighthouse needs
only one man to operate it. The Nugget Point is a place where
you will see a variety of seabirds as spoonbills, penguins and
gannets. It is home of a large number of fur seals. |
