Eborac Island Light, Lighthouse in Torres Strait Islands, Queensland, Australia
The Eborac Island Light consists of a white hexagonal fiberglass tower equipped with a solar-powered navigation system that guides ships through the Adolphus Channel.
The original concrete lighthouse, constructed in 1921, operated for nearly a century until its deterioration led to replacement with a modern fiberglass structure in 2012.
The island where the lighthouse stands bears both its English name Eborac and the indigenous designation Dyāra, reflecting the dual heritage of the region.
The lighthouse emits white flashes every ten seconds from its position 115 feet above sea level, providing essential guidance to vessels traversing the Great Barrier Reef waters.
The Australian Maritime Safety Authority maintains this remote installation, which requires boat transportation for access as it remains closed to public visits.
