Cape Brett Lighthouse is a lighthouse at Cape Brett in the Northland Region of the North Island of New Zealand. The site was surveyed and chosen in 1908 by Captain John Bollons of NZGSS Hinemoa.

The lighthouse was deactivated and keepers withdrawn in 1978 and replaced by an automated beacon on the same site.
