Robe Lighthouse, Navigation tower in Robe, South Australia
The white concrete tower stands 19 meters tall with a base width of 3.5 meters expanding to 5 meters at its summit point.
The structure was established in 1972 as an automated unmanned light to replace the Cape Jaffa Lighthouse, which had previously guided ships in the region.
The lighthouse stands as a testament to South Australia's maritime development, marking Robe's evolution from a major wool export port to a modern coastal town.
Visitors can explore the lighthouse grounds and surrounding park area, which includes interpretive signs explaining the structure's navigation functions and construction details.
The lighthouse utilizes a Chance Bros 4th order rotating lens from 1935, previously located on Gabo Island, projecting light across 22 nautical miles.
