This distinctive red and white striped day navigation beacon or the Daymark Tower sits at the top of the headland and was erected in 1832 as a safety measure. Many sailors mistook Gribbin Head for St. Anthony's Head at the entrance of Falmouth Estuary. To stop any accidents which resulted from the confusion the red and white stripped Daymark Tower was built to distinguish the two headlands.
