"In 1875, the headland was chosen as the lighthouse site because it provided the best views of the extensive waters of the Port. Lighthouse Cottage is a historic lighthouse keeper's cottage offers visitors beautiful views, local history, photographs, maps and information on marine rescue. It now operates as a museum of local history. See the working Coastal Patrol radio base, staffed by volunteers, is open to visitors."
