Norah Head Lighthouse was built in 1903. A walking track skirts around the side of the Lighthouse and leads to stairs which climb down to the rock platform below and to Lighthouse Beach.

The Norah Head Lighthouse celebrated its 100 years Centenary on November 15, 2003. Apart from electrification few changes have been made to the lighthouse since it was established in 1903. Edward Hargaves of the gold finding fame was one of those whose influence eventually resulted in the building of the lighthouse. From his residence at nearby Norahville, he became aware of the growing number of wrecks occurring in the vicinity and pressed for the onstruction of a marine navigation aid.
