Cape Leeuwin Lighthouse experience. - I love the place. I've never seen anything like that before, so I really enjoyed it. I went with a couple of friends and family, and we all had fun. The place is not crowded so you will not feel suffocated.

Windy experience - What an experience. It was pretty windy up there so we had to take off our glasses, but what a view of these two oceans that meet each other. Ron, our guide told us about the lighthouse keeper and a boat that sank. He told me about the lighthouse itself. There were a lot of elderly people with and a man who changed both knees six months ago, but they managed the stairs, and got a payoff when they came up. Interesting film to see inside the museum.

Well worth the climb - It gives you a good insight into how hard life was back in the early days especially at remote lighthouses.

Highly recommend views are amazing - Well worth the money. Views at the top are amazing, loved that it was informative. All the years coming to Augusta and even completing the cape to cape walk ending at this lighthouse it was first time going up. We also loved having a bite to eat prior to doing this tour at the cafe. Highly recommend

The highlight of every year - This place has something very special. I have been on this tour over 20 times and cannot put my finger on what it is. Listening to the history. Climbing the 176 steps to the top. Walking out on the deck in the howling winds and breathing in some of the cleanest air in the world. Looking out over the uninterrupted views as far as the eye can see. These few moments for me are where I finish one year, reset and begin the next with a fresh mind. My favourite location in Australia. Our guide this year was Murray, a truly passionate guy with an obvious love for the region.

Excellent Guided Tour - A picturesque lighthouse with interesting history. Riley was a very knowledgeable guide and very patient with my slow climbing up and down the 176 steps (after 500+ steps in Mammoth cave earlier in the day). Thankyou Riley! At the top you have great views of where the Southern Ocean meets the Indian Ocean. The tour is 30 mins and gives you an insight into the hard job of lighthouse keepers back 'in the day'. Would highly recommend! Also there is an excellent cafe for a light lunch if you arrive a little peckish.
