Cape Byron Lighthouse sits perched like a boss on the eastern Australian coastline of Cape Byron. The vantage offers an epic perspective of the sparkling Pacific. Such a jaw-dropping sight deserves a bit of extra magnification through this borderlinehuggable viewfinder.

Getting to it is an adventure in and of itself—one that involves hiking up the Cape Byron Walking Track, surrounded by wildlife. Once you are safely atop, guides are present to share its history: the maritime mayhem that made it necessary, its concentric sixwick kerosene burner, and how the structure has managed to maintain its status as Australia’s most powerful, still-active lighthouse.
