| Keywords: outdoor landscape mountain Nugget Point Lighthouse is a lighthouse at Nugget Point in the Otago region of the South Island of New Zealand.[3] It is owned and operated by Maritime New Zealand. The lighthouse was built from 1869 to 1870 and first lit on 4 July 1870.[1] The tower was constructed from locally quarried stone. The lighting apparatus that was installed had come to New Zealand on the same ship as the lighthouse designer James Balfour in 1863 and was originally intended for the lighthouse at Cape Saunders. With the project on Otago Peninsula experiencing many delays, the lighting apparatus was used at Nugget Point instead. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nugget_Point_Lighthouse Nugget Point Lighthouse is a lighthouse at Nugget Point in the Otago region of the South Island of New Zealand.[3] It is owned and operated by Maritime New Zealand.
