Enter lighthouse and click Search Tags.
It should return quite a few.
Or go directly to the tag family for lighthouse.

You can also check out the locationless cache for lighthouses.

Have been tempted to do this one at Palm Beach, Sydney.
Stewart’s Lights
Old maps indicate the top of the lighthouse is actually a trig station too while we're on the subject. There was also a trig at ground level just north as I recall from the map.

Re: Geocaches near light houses?
Hey peeps, if you happen to be finding caches that are lighthouses that aren't on the list of caches tagged with lighthouse, it would be most wonderful if you could add that tag.
The latest example.
Head to the cache page.
http://geocaching.com.au/cache/GC1P8W6
Right hand navigation bar under Actions, click on tag.
In the public tag box, enter lighthouse
Click the save tags button.
Tada. Another cache tagged with lighthouse.
The community can any tag to any cache and the more tags, the easier they become to find.

Cape Banks http://coord.info/GC85A is not far from the Mount
Re: Geocaches near light houses?
That one is near the coast, The one at Goulburn is inland and is not even near inland water.
