Perched at the entrance to Currie Harbour on King Island's rugged west coast, the Currie Lighthouse stands as a testament to maritime history. Constructed in 1879, this 21-meter-tall wrought iron tower was designed to guide ships safely through the treacherous waters of Bass Strait. Visitors can ascend the 93 spiral steps to the top, where panoramic views of the Southern Ocean and the island's coastline await. Adjacent to the lighthouse, the King Island Historical Museum offers insights into the island's rich heritage, including exhibits on shipwrecks and early pioneers. Guided tours provide historical commentary, enriching the experience of this iconic landmark.
