About the event
Join us over the Australia Day long weekend as we celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Cape Jaffa Lighthouse’s relocation and opening as a museum—a milestone in Australian maritime history.
Across the weekend, visitors can experience the lighthouse like never before with day and night tours, a historical display featuring images, videos and stories and a special illumination of the lighthouse to mark this remarkable achievement. Free tea and coffee will be available all weekend, making it the perfect opportunity to linger, explore and soak up the atmosphere.
This celebration honours not only the lighthouse itself, but the ingenuity, resilience, and community spirit that saved it for future generations.
