Product Description

The Guardian Stretched Canvas Prints

The Guardian Stretched Canvas Prints Split Point Lighthouse is a lighthouse located in Aireys Inlet, a small town on the Great Ocean Road, Victoria, Australia. Originally called Eagles Nest Point, the lighthouse was constructed in 1891. It was converted to automatic operation in 1919. Under standard Australian lighthouse convention, red filters would usually be placed to the extreme left and right of the beam indicating danger zones. For reasons unknown, the Split Point Lighthouse operated for many years under the opposite system; although this has now been corrected. Split point lighthouse has 132 stairs from bottom to top and is 34 meters tall. The still operating lighthouse is open to the public with guided tours available and sweeping views of the Eagle Rock Marine Sanctuary and Great Ocean Road region below. Since summer 2005, the Split Point Lighthouse has been offering regular 30 minute guided tours, during which visitors have the chance to climb the original staircase and experience the view from the balcony just below the lantern room. Tours had been available for much of the 1990s, but on only a few days per year. The original lighthouse keeper's quarters, a detached house adjacent to the site, is now a privately owned residence.
