MERSEY BLUFF LIGHTHOUSE
Since 1889
Mersey Bluff Lighthouse stands proudly at the Mersey River in Devonport. Constructed in 1889 by P. Davern under a contract with the Hobart Marine Board, this lighthouse is built of brick atop a stone base. Originally, the light station comprised two brick houses, a signal shed, a tide house, and a flagpole. Its construction marked the end of the history of shipwrecks in this vicinity. A stunning beach and a nearby camping area are close to the lighthouse. Visitors in the Mersey Bluff Lighthouse can take a stroll from the caravan park, making it an ideal spot to stay and indulge in artistic activities like painting.
