What’s better than one iconic lighthouse? TWO! That’s right – Wollongong is the only spot on the entire eastern coast of Australia to boast not one but two lighthouses! 🤩
The Wollongong Harbour Lighthouse, standing tall since 1871 on the breakwater, guided ships safely into Wollongong Harbour for over a century. Then there’s the Flagstaff Hill Lighthouse, built in 1936, proudly perched on its namesake hill to assist vessels into Port Kembla.
Double the lighthouses, double the history, double the reason to visit and snap that perfect coastal photo! 🙌
