Wadjemup Lighthouse

Wadjemup Lighthouse is a historic active lighthouse on Wadjemup Hill, the highest point of Rottnest Island, Western Australia, about 19 kilometres off Fremantle. First lit in 1849 and rebuilt in 1896, it is Western Australia's second-oldest lighthouse site and remains an important navigation aid. The limestone tower offers panoramic views over the island, Perth coastline and Indian Ocean, and is a central landmark within the Rottnest Island reserve.

Visitors can expect a prominent limestone lighthouse tower on the central hill of Rottnest Island surrounded by low coastal heath and panoramic 360-degree views. The exterior is accessible at all times for sightseeing and photography, while the interior and lantern room are accessible only on guided tours. The site includes interpretive signage about maritime history and the island landscape, with access by bicycle or walking as no private vehicles are permitted on the island.
