Grotto Point is down a side track from the Spit to Manly walk - unmarked but a developed track that you can spot if you look. It's an interesting lighthouse in a great spot out on the harbour. You can even get down on the rocks. Also note that another track to Washaway Beach runs off this track.

This lighthouse is sitting on the top of the hill on the outskirts of Byron Bay township with a great circuit walking trail that goes up and around the entire headland. Also a great place to spot whales off the headland during migration season This walk is moderate from the main Byron Bay Beach with amazing views or you can park closer and walk up! “Jonique Life” Follow our journey around Australia on Facebook, Instagram and YouTube as we highlight wonderful experiences and magical places you can add to your ever growing bucket list.

After a challenging drive up from Sugarloaf Bay (2 way traffic on a single lane with crazy drivers parking on each side) it was a steep walk up from the car park adjacent to the former Keeper's Cottages. Spectacular views of the Lighthouse on the approach to spectacular views from the Lighthouse (of Lighthouse Beach) Culminating in a short climb up the external steps to the first level balcony A challenge and climb well rewarded.

We went out to see the Lighthouse on a particularly windy and cold (for August) day as part of our private tour of the Northern Beaches. The trail up to the lighthouse did not seem strenuous at first but once we got about a third of the way, the trail turned VERY steep. Luckily we were able to stop for breaks along the way to admire the SPECTACULAR views from every angle! Just breathtaking! I am certainly glad I did not try this in the heat of summer. Once at the top, I felt accomplished and knew I would be having dessert that night! We took many photos and decided to try the Smugglers Path for the way down. Just beware that this path is mostly uneven steps and rocks so if your knees are not in great shape, take the larger trail that you used on the way up!

Interesting visit to the inner light house to see some of Port Stephens history and view of Shoal Bay and out the headlands.

This lighthouse has an amazing viewing platform where you can sit and watch the sea for hours. I noted a few people have said access was prevented due to road works. If you are physically able continue down the road to lighthouse beach carpark. Walk down to the beach and to the base of the lighthouse around 100m; stairs (about 50) go to the top with a rest station on the way.

Nobbys Lighthouse sits high on Nobbys Headland guarding the entrance to Newcastle Harbour. It has been an active lighthouse for over 150 years and continues to safely direct ships in and out of Newcastle harbour. The site is an iconic landmark at well-loved location in Newcastle. The Nobbys Lighthouse grounds are open every Sunday from 10am to 4pm and entry to the site is free. Parking is located adjacent to Nobbys Beach at Camp Shortland. The lighthouse is an 800 metre walk from the car park, with a steep climb at the end. There is a small kiosk on site serving tea, coffee and cold drinks. Visitors are welcome to pack their own supplies and make the most of the beautiful 360 degree views. The current lease holder, Newcastle Now, cares for the site to ensure it is open to the public every Sunday of the year. A proud and dedicated team of volunteers works hard to welcome visitors, they love to share their knowledge of the city and its surrounds with tourists. Newcastle Now, is undertaking an ambitious plan to raise funds to support the development of the site, ultimately delivering a unique tourism venue to serve the local community and visitors to the region.
Nobby’s Lighthouse is an easy walk on Saturday or Sunday. Take photos of the city, ships leaving the harbour accompanied by tugs, ships entering the harbour and Nobby’s Beach.
