This lighthouse was originally located atop a rocky islet on the Northwest side of Magnetic Island about 20 km (13 mi) north of Townsville; it was replaced by a small fibreglass beacon. In 1992 it was relocated to the Townsville Maritime Museum, where it was restored by Queensland Transport. The museum was expanded and refurbished in 2001; it exhibits a collection of Fresnel lenses from the former Penrith Island, Albino Rock, Heath Reef, and Duyfken Point lighthouses. Located on the south side of Ross Creek near down-town Townsville.
