Pt Cloates Lighthouse is located on Ningaloo Station approx halfway between Exmouth and Coral Bay. Access is 4WD only and as its located on a private station it is recommended that you visit the homestead or call on 08 9942 5936 prior to your visit. The lighthouse was constructed in 1911 and although still standing, has suffered damage due to the cyclones that cross our coastline.
