Built around the 19th-century Lady Bay lighthouses, the Flagstaff Hill Maritime Museum and Village offers a glimpse into the maritime history of the region. The museum is home to an impressive collection of shipwreck memorabilia, displayed within recreations of 1870s shops, creating an immersive historical experience. In the evenings, visitors can enjoy the multimillion-dollar sound and light show, ‘Tales of the Shipwreck Coast,’ which brings the area’s dramatic history to life. Additionally, guests might encounter Maremma dogs, which are trained to protect nesting penguins from foxes, adding a unique and educational element to the visit.
