#646 Tacking Point Lighthouse

📍 Tacking Point Lighthouse, Port Macquarie, Australia

About this Stone

This headland lighthouse, built in 1879, stands as one of Australia’s oldest lighthouses still in operation, commanding one of the most breathtaking coastal views imaginable. The spot rewards a stunning 4 km walk along the coastline, offering sweeping vistas that make the journey worthwhile. The stone here comes with a memorable story—when it was placed beneath the viewing deck, a friendly warning about the large brown snakes that occasionally rest in the area turned a calm moment into a hasty retreat. It’s a good reminder to stay alert while exploring, but the beauty of the location and the charm of its history make it well worth the visit.
