Quick Facts

Distance from Sydney: 108km
Distance from Newcastle: 55km
Population (2001 Census): 1,106

The focal point of Norah Head is without question the Norah Head Lighthouse. With many ship wrecked vessels in the 1800's, the precast concrete block lighthouse structure was erected in 1903. In 1923 the lighthouse was upgraded to a brighter kerosene burner and finally converted to electricity in 1961.

At the entrance to Norah Head Lighthouse is a boat anchor which is a memorial  for merchant marinas lost in time of war.

Attractions

There are several lookouts at Norah head looking north and south with a great walking trail with natural vegetation and wildlife.

Relax at the local Lighthouse Coffee and Takeaway, a great spot for lunch or morning and afternoon tea.
