START POINT LIGHTHOUSE TOUR

Information

Have you ever wondered.... Why not all Lighthouses are the same colour?
What they look like inside?  Why Lighthouses are no longer manned?
Start Point Lighthouse has illuminated the South Devon coastline for 175 years.  Come for a guided tour and see how it works... watch the flow of the tidal race, see passing ships, stunning coastline and wildlife;  Climb the tower to hear stories of storms, shipwrecks and Lighthouse living.
