Cape Martin Lighthouse, Maritime navigation tower in Beachport, Australia.

Cape Martin Lighthouse stands 12 meters tall with a white lantern on top of an unpainted concrete square tower near Rivoli Bay.

The 1960 construction incorporated the light apparatus from Penguin Island Lighthouse, marking a transition in maritime navigation for the region.

The lighthouse represents a connection between maritime heritage and modern navigation technology through its continuous operation since the 1960s.

The lighthouse emits four white flashes every 20 seconds with an intensity of 40,000 candela, reaching vessels up to 18 nautical miles away.

Sand dune accumulation required engineers to extend the tower height from 4.5 to 12 meters in 1980 to maintain light visibility.
