About Ataköy Marina Lighthouse
Also known as: Bakırköy
This active lighthouse is an 18-meter octagonal stone tower, painted white, centered on a single-story octagonal keeper's house. It stands at Ataköy Marina on the European side of Istanbul, Turkey, along the Sea of Marmara. The light emits a red flash every 3 seconds and has a geographic range of 11.3 nautical miles. The lighthouse guides vessels entering and leaving the marina. The site is open to the public, but the tower itself remains closed.
Why it matters: Its distinctive red flash helps mariners pinpoint the marina's location amidst the extensive Istanbul coastline on the Sea of Marmara. The integrated design of its octagonal stone tower with a keeper's house offers a notable example of local maritime architectural design.
