Message from Ashley Elliott

Picturesque lighthouse overlooking the Manukau Harbour. Great day trip adventure.

Further information: The Manukau Heads Lighthouse draws thousands of visitors each year to marvel at its stunning location and take in the amazing panoramic views. Visitors can participate in a tactile tour of the lighthouse and learn about New Zealand's worst shipwreck disaster, HMS Orpheus. If adventure is on your list, the surrounding area offers plenty of sights and activities from Glenbook Vintage Rail to tasting award winning wines at Awhitu Wines, or exploring the Awhitu Regional Park. Take some time to explore this beautiful historic attraction and experience a journey through time!
