Flagstaff Point Lighthouse, also known as Wollongong Head Lighthouse, is a historic attraction situated in the coastal city of Wollongong, Australia. Built in 1881, it is a popular spot for photo-travelers due to its picturesque location overlooking the Tasman Sea. The lighthouse has a unique octagonal shape and is made of unpainted concrete, standing at 12 meters tall. The best time to visit for photos is at sunrise or sunset, when the warm light creates stunning reflections on the water below. It is recommended to bring a wide angle lens to capture the entirety of the lighthouse and its surrounding scenery. Additionally, the lighthouse is situated near several scenic walking trails, offering a variety of photo opportunities along the way. However, be prepared for strong winds and possibly crowds during peak tourist season. Admission to the lighthouse is free, making it a budget-friendly option for photo-travelers.
