Built in 1876, tallest masonry lighthouse in RSA, most South Eastern point of Africa
Seal Point Lighthouse was erected in 1878 and stands as the tallest masonry lighthouse in South Africa. Over the years it has been modernized and refurbished and still plays an important role in warning passing ships of a deadly two-kilometer (1.2-mile) reef running out into the ocean.
