Photo: Beautiful Castlepoint Sunset Wairarapa New Zealand

Situated on a spit of land which separates the mighty Pacific Ocean from a small lagoon, the Castlepoint Lighthouse keeps watch over the Wairarapa coastline and is a beautiful place in New Zealand to watch a glorious sunset.

The 23 metre tall Castlepoint Lighthouse was first commissioned on January 12, 1913 after being prefabricated in England. The lighthouse which sits 52 metres above sea level, sends out a white light which flashes every 10 seconds - protecting the beautiful Wairarapa coastline for 26 nautical miles.

A sunset stroll along the boardwalk to the Castlepoint Lighthouse is a rewarding way to end a day, as the beautiful Pacific Ocean coastline of the Wairarapa is silhouetted against the pastel painted horizon.
