About this

Cape Palliser 5772, New Zealand

Cape Palliser Lighthouse, situated on the southernmost point of New Zealand's North Island, offers visitors a glimpse into maritime history with its striking red-and-white striped facade. This iconic lighthouse, which has been guiding ships since 1897, is accessible by climbing a steep staircase of 253 steps, rewarding visitors with panoramic views of the rugged coastline. Nearby, travelers can explore the largest fur seal colony on the North Island, enjoy scenic walks along the coastline, and experience the unique charm of the nearby fishing village of Ngawi, where tractors line the shore, used for launching boats into the sea.
