This is a list of lighthouses and lightvessels in Australia. Australia has a coastline of , with over 350 lighthouses and navigational aids around the Australian coastline, and a single inland lighthouse, the Point Malcolm lighthouse.〔 The first lighthouse was Macquarie Lighthouse, which was lit in 1793 as a tripod mounted wood and coal fired beacon.〔〔 The last manned lighthouse was Maatsuyker Island Lighthouse, off the south coast of Tasmania, which was automated in 1996.〔 ==Listing== The lighthouses and lightvessels of Australia are listed in the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency ''List of Lights'' publication 111. They are listed by the United Kingdom Hydrographic Office on volume K of the ''Admiralty List of Lights & Fog Signals''. The ''ARLHS World List of Lights'' lists them with the prefix "AUS". On ''The Lighthouse Directory'', the lighthouses of Australia are listed according to their location: * Coral Sea Islands Territory * New South Wales, including Cape St George Lighthouse which is in Jervis Bay Territory. * Northern Territory * Queensland's East Coast, from Townsville southwards * Far North Queensland * South Australia * Tasmania * Victoria * Western Australia Another listing is held by ''Lighthouses of Australia Inc.'', which lists lighthouses by state〔:〕 * Western Australia * Northern Territory * South Australia * Queensland * New South Wales * Victoria * Tasmania Another list exists at ''Australian Lighthouses'', a website which includes both an A-Z list and a list by state. A list also exists at ''SeaSide Lights'', which lists lighthouses by state: * Western Australia * Northern Territory * South Australia * Queensland * New South Wales * Victoria * Tasmania In order to be listed below, an active lighthouse has to appear at least in one of ''The Lighthouse Directory'', ''Lighthouses of Australia Inc.'' or ''SeaSide Lights''. Other lists mentioned above include many lights which are hard to describe as "lighthouses".〔See for example, (Brush Island Light ), a small concrete hut with an automated lamp on top of it, not listed on ''The Lighthouse Directory'', ''Lighthouses of Australia Inc.'' and ''SeaSide Lights'' but listed on ''Australian Lighthouses'', ''List of Lights'', ''Admiralty List of Lights & Fog Signals'' and the ''ARLHS World List of Lights''.〕 Historical lighthouses were sometimes included when they are mentioned in other reliable sources. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「List of lighthouses and lightvessels in Australia」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
