Crookhaven Heads Light, Maritime beacon near Culburra Beach, Australia.

The brick lighthouse stands at the entrance of Shoalhaven River, featuring a cylindrical tower connected to a single-story operational building.

The first lighthouse at this location began as a red lantern on poles in 1872, followed by a timber structure in 1882, before the current brick tower in 1904.

The lighthouse remains an essential part of maritime navigation for vessels traveling through the Shoalhaven and Crookhaven Rivers along Australia's eastern coast.

Visitors can reach the lighthouse through two paths from Prince Edward Avenue's northern parking area: a boardwalk route or a beach trail.

The structure operates with solar power and displays a yellow light flashing every two seconds to guide ships through the channel.
