Clarence River Light, Maritime navigation tower in Yamba, Australia

The concrete tower stands 18 meters tall on Pilot Hill, serving as a rear range light for vessels entering the Clarence River entrance.

The initial lighthouse, designed by James Barnet in 1880, was replaced by the current structure in 1955 due to visual obstruction concerns.

The original lighthouse site now features a replica structure built by local volunteers, which houses the Yamba Community Radio Station 2TLC.

The lighthouse grounds remain open to visitors throughout the year, while the Australian Maritime Safety Authority maintains the operational aspects.

An iron pole that formerly held a kerosene lamp from the original lighthouse remains preserved in Story Park near the community museum.

Location: Clarence Valley Council
