Accommodation is available at the lighthouse keepers cottage providing visitors with an idea of what it was like to live as a lighthouse keeper in this remote site. Accommodation costs: $12 per night for adults; $6 per night for children under 15 years.
Cape Brett is of particular spiritual and traditional importance to local and Northland Maori.
