About Anadolu Karaburun Lighthouse
This cylindrical concrete tower, standing 8 meters tall, features a white and red exterior and is topped by a square skeletal structure. Its light emits a white flash every 5 seconds. The lighthouse is situated on a sharp and steep promontory west of Sahilköy, near Şile. While the site is open to visitors, the tower itself is closed to the public. The focal height of the light is 43 meters, providing a geographic range of 17.6 nautical miles.
Why it matters: The lighthouse warns mariners of the steep promontory it marks west of Sahilköy and is an active aid to navigation.
