The famous Portland Bill lighthouse was built in 1906, stands 35m high and has been keeping shipping safe along this stretch of the Dorset Coast. It is still in working order but is now fully automatic. Guided tours of the lighthouse can be arranged but these are subject to opening times. Also on the site of the lighthouse is a visitor centre, which is open during the summer months. It has various displays about the lighthouses, wildlife, Portland stone industry and shipwrecks. A visit to the Pulpit Rock, a fantastic rock formation next to the lighthouse, is well advised.
