Burrewarra Point Light is an active lighthouse located at Burrewarra Point, New South Wales, Australia, which is north of Broulee and 25 kilometres (16 mi) to the south of Batemans Bay.
The light was constructed in 1974 as an automated lighthouse which was powered from batteries charged from the mains. In 1984 it was converted to solar power, with battery backup.[2]
The light has no lantern.[3]
Site operation and visiting
[edit | edit source]The lighthouse is operated by Transport for NSW.[4] The site is open and accessible to the public, but the tower is closed.[3]
