Perched on the rugged cliffs of Cape Spencer within the Dhilba Guuranda-Innes National Park, the Cape Spencer Lighthouse offers panoramic coastal views and a glimpse into South Australia's maritime heritage. Established in 1950 as an automatic beacon and upgraded to its current concrete structure in 1975, the lighthouse stands 9 meters tall with a focal height of 78 meters, guiding vessels with its continuous red light visible over nearby reefs. Visitors can enjoy a short 300-meter walk from the car park to the lighthouse, where interpretive signage provides insights into the area's history. The surrounding cliffs and offshore islands, including Althorpe Island, add to the area's natural beauty, making it a must-visit destination for history enthusiasts and nature lovers alike.
