While hiking the West Coast Trail, look beyond the trees and see the red and white striped Pachena Point Lighthouse in the distance. It was built in 1907 following the sinking of the SS Valencia. It's a wooden, octagonal lighthouse, the light station and its inner grounds are currently closed to the public, but it can still be marvelled at from the main trail.
