North Reef Light, Maritime navigation structure at North Reef, Queensland, Australia.
The North Reef Light features a hollow concrete base supporting a 24-meter tall timber-framed tower covered with iron cladding near Gladstone.
Construction of the lighthouse began in January 1876 and reached completion in November 1878, following recommendations from a parliamentary committee in 1864.
The Commonwealth Heritage List recognizes this lighthouse as a representation of maritime infrastructure development along the Queensland coast during the nineteenth century.
The lighthouse emits two white flashes every fifteen seconds, visible from seventeen nautical miles, powered by solar energy since September 1987.
The structure stands on a migratory patch of sand within a fringing coral reef, which transformed over time into a vegetated sandy island.
