My World Tuesday-Kiama Lighthouse

The lighthouse was established in 1887, 10 years after the creation of the Robertson Basin, a manmade harbour to service Kiama. The principal Keeper's House was destroyed by vandals in the 1920s.
The 1-story assistant Keeper's House, used for many years as a residence for harbor pilots, is now a museum and visitor centre. Kiama Lighthouse is located in Kiama, about 30 kilometres south of Wollongong, on Blowhole Point, a tourist attraction in its own right.
