The lighthouse on Gabo Island guards the eastern entrance to Bass Strait in #Australia. It is an active navigation lighthouse and weather station for the Australian Bureau of Meteorology.
It was built in 1853 from red granite sourced on the island. The wind blew down the windbreak wall, so buttresses were added for stability.
We went to the top for perfect 360 degree views on a blue sky day.
Access to the island is generally by boat and one can stay overnight!

Recent reviews of Gabo Island hotels

5/5 Excellent

"Wow! When you first drive in my memories return to an old deserted school camp! You can practically hear the banjos twanging. BUT.... What a gorgeous little place. A beautiful outdoor area to enjoy a wine under the stars with a fire pit if you want one. The rooms are very comfortable with relatively new bathrooms. BUT.... the owners! Wow!! They turn up around 5:30pm and open a beautiful restaurant together with French inspired menu. The food was delicious, and the host just could not do enough to make your stay perfect. For those that like a holiday that is total seclusion but with an on site restaurant... this is just so perfect ❤️ "

relaxing stay

"Great accommodation. Had everything you needed plus more. Short walk to the water and walking path. Had to contact property manager for the address and how to access the property. She was very helpful as Stayz did not correspond very well at all...disappointing on their behalf"
