The lighthouse was built in 1837 after the Clarendon shipwreck. This happened west of the village of Niton. Opposite the white tower, about thirty meters high, created in 1323, another tower with a siren was built, which is turned on during bad weather or fog. Excursions to the lighthouse are organized year round.
