Cape Wanbrow is a rocky headland one kilometre to the south of Oamaru, New Zealand. A lighthouse on the cape guards the entrance to Oamaru Harbour.
Cape Wanbrow was an important lookout point during the second world war and hosts gun emplacements and remains of old barracks. It is also home to a blue penguin colony, and rare yellow eyed penguins. NZ fur seals and the occasional elephant seal are found resting on the rocks.
