Climb Australia’s tallest mainland lighthouse, where the Indian and Southern Oceans meet. Gain an unforgettable perspective of the rugged coast at the southern tip of the Margaret River Region – and southwestern most point of the Australian mainland. Surrounded by windswept cliffs and southern winds carrying salt spray, Cape Leeuwin is wild and grand, especially when whales are spotted. There is a series of immersive onsite experiences, including a museum and café in two of the restored Lighthouse Keeper’s Cottage. This breathtaking display of raw natural power is a deeply restorative experience when paired with the gentle hum of the nearby township of Augusta.
Drive time: Cape Leeuwin Lighthouse is a 1-hour drive from Ampersand Estates.
