Lizard Lighthouse

Lizard Lighthouse, perched on the most southerly point of mainland Britain, is one of Cornwall’s most historic and iconic maritime landmarks. First established in 1619 and rebuilt in its current form in 1752, it features twin white towers and a powerful beam that has long guided ships navigating the treacherous waters of the English Channel. Operated today by Trinity House, the lighthouse also houses a fascinating heritage center where visitors can explore exhibits on shipwrecks, fog signals, and lighthouse technology. With its striking clifftop setting, panoramic sea views, and rich maritime legacy, Lizard Lighthouse remains a beacon of safety and a must-visit destination for history and coastal enthusiasts alike.
