Number 2 on my Lighthouse visits whilst on Kangaroo Island. Located in Flinders Chase National Park, so if you are visiting the park, worthwhile stopping to have a look. Weather the day I was there was less then favourable (rain & windy), so curtailed the time I spent in the park.

Flinders chase has new rules in place since bushfires and Covid 2020. Online ticket purchases, but do this well in advance due to sketchy internet. Checkpoint will confirm your ticket before entering. The drive through the area is sad. The lighthouse has a drop toilet and nothing else. Next to admirals arch, and a 10 minute drive to remarkable rocks. Worth a visit but I couldn’t see if there were tours. Couldn’t get a photo without waiting for people’s kids to stop climbing all over it and kicking it with their shoes which bothered me.

Visited this lighthouse and the famous Du Couedic instagrammable road. I can see why the road is famous. It is quite picturesque when you can get a picture of it with no cars going along it which I did and once you get up to the lighthouse it is spectacular. There are a few walks you can do from lighthouse and the views are amazing.
Can get quite busy but plenty of parking there and a pit toilet.

This lighthouse is within Flinders Chase NP and close to the boardwalk to Admirals Arch. I didn''t see an option to go inside but there is information around the lighthouse. This one is quite visually appealing with it's red top. Great photo opportunity.

It was nice to visit the lighthouse, parking is not that far. You'll see the view of the sea, very windy make sure not have something can easily blown away. We just spent few minutes. There is near toilet but the old style, you can see a big hole under.

Long drive, looks great on a clear day. Not really worth a 2.5 hrs round trip in the car tbh. It's in the top 300 light houses I've seen in my life.

We spent a while here checking out the lighthouse and Admiral’s Arch as well as hiking in the area. Well worth the drive of staying anywhere on the Island.

Flinders Chase information centre recommended us to check this place out. I was not disappointed. I'm not a massive fan of light houses generally, but I loved the sight of this one as it was surrounded by bushes and blue skies made a perfect backdrop.
I believe they offer tours but I opted not to go with it.
You can park the car at the lighthouse. They have toilets outside as well. There's a
walk that take you to few lookouts that you can get to see sea lions and rough sea.
We walked from the lighthouse to the Admirals arch and I encourage you to do it as you get to explore the landscape more that way.

Interesting lighthouse, but just a short walk to Admirals Arch - an interesting natural land mark. And thousands of fur seals on and around the rocks resting, swimming and playing, making this a fabulous sight to visit

I don't believe you can go inside. At least it was closed when we were there.
