Experience…
Wadjemup Lighthouse
Located in the centre of the Island, this is one of the few lighthouses in Australia built in the centre as opposed to along the coast. The lighthouse stands approximately 38 metres high from ground level to the lantern and played a crucial role in the pilot boat operations as it provided a communication between pilot boat stations and incoming ships. Until this day Wadjemup Lighthouse remains in operation and was opened to the public for tourism on November 2nd, 2005.
Oliver Hill Gun Fortifications and Tunnels
This attraction is a significant icon representing the defence of Australia during World War II. Over the years it has been highlighted as a significant heritage site and features the defence facilities and mechanism that were in place to defend major Australian ports overwhelmed by warships during the war. Whilst on this tour you will have the opportunity to discover the hidden secrets of this attraction through a guided tour.
West End
A rugged piece of coastline which unlike the rest of the Island is not so calm and peaceful. Here you can gaze across the Indian Ocean and view the magnificent waves forming, a paradise for surfers. West End is renowned for scuba diving and for some shore fishing, but is not for the faint hearted, as this area has no protection from the elements of the ocean. Whilst here if you are lucky, you might come across some sea creatures in their natural habitat including the resident New Zealand fur seals! These seals tend to live and breed along the south coast of Australia and New Zealand.
Salt Lakes
When on the island, a must do activity is to explore the many salt lakes that occupy approximately 10 per cent of the area. Notable ones include Lake Baghdad, Lake Vincent, Herschel Lake, Garden Lake, Government House Lake and Serpentine Lake. These lakes are permanent and are always accessible all year around, other notable lakes that may dry up throughout the summer period include Pink Lake, Lake Sirius, Lake Negri and the twin Pearse Lakes. These salt lake are known to turn pink as a result of the interaction between the algae and salt that grows in the water. When the right mixture of salt and sunlight interact with the algae a red pigment known as beta carotene is accumulated resulting in the pink tinge to the water.
