Adjacent to the beautiful Low Head lighthouse in the “Old Quarters” building (c. 1830) you will find the Marine Education Centre. The facility was established and is maintained by volunteers.

The centre gives people of all ages the opportunity to learn about and care for the marine environment.

View our static displays which amongst many include a crab bigger than a penguin, a majestic White-bellied Sea Eagle and a whale tooth.

The 14 Tasmanian lighthouses are featured and include a lighthouse puzzle.

The centre is open 11:30-12:30 each Sunday to coincide with the sounding of the foghorn.

Admission is free but donations are appreciated.
