Thereโ€™s a Cape Jaffa Lighthouse in Kingston. Yes, Kingston.

Once standing out at sea on the Margaret Brock Reef, the lighthouse guided ships along this stretch of coastline for more than a century.

Today, its striking red and white structure stands on Marine Parade in Kingston, where you can get much closer to a piece of maritime history that once stood around eight kilometres offshore.

Itโ€™s the kind of story you might miss if you donโ€™t stop and look a little closer.
