Port Nolloth Light Beacon Guerrini Landmark

About Port Nolloth Light Beacon Guerrini Landmark

Situated at 44 Main Road, the Port Nolloth Light Beacon Guerrini is a fascinating historical landmark that breaks the mold of traditional coastal lighthouses. Standing as an 11-metre-high aluminium lattice tower wrapped in bold black-and-white striped day markers, it is recognized as South Africa's northernmost lighthouse structure on the west coast. Originally operating with older petroleum-vapour and AGA burners, the station now safely guides maritime vessels using a modern VEGA VRB 25 beacon. Because it is located directly within the town precinct rather than right on the crashing shoreline, it offers a quick, accessible, and family-friendly sightseeing stop for overlanders exploring the Diamond Coast.
