Agulhas National Park: The Cape Agulhas Lighthouse precinct is getting an upgrade
South African National Parks (SANParks) is currently upgrading and renewing the existing Cape Agulhas Lighthouse precinct within Agulhas National Park, in order to provide an improved tourism offering and facilities. The project, which commenced in March 2022 and is expected to be finished in December 2023, includes a tourism reception area for Agulhas National Park, a restaurant, a retail facility, an interpretation and exhibition area, a multi-use auditorium, vendor stalls, toilet facilities and an outdoor multi-use open area for events, as well as a parking area.
During the course of construction it might be necessary to close the Cape Agulhas Lighthouse temporarily to the public. There are no ablution facilities available during the entire construction period. There is a loss of parking spaces at the back of the lighthouse, however there are limited parking spaces off the paved road at the front of the lighthouse on the sea side. Visitors are also welcome to park at the southernmost parking area and walk along the boardwalk to the lighthouse. We'll keep you posted!
