The Batukapal Lighthouse is a cylindrical concrete tower standing 9 meters tall and 35 meters above sea level. It features a unique barbell shape and emits a white flash every four seconds. This lighthouse is situated on a rocky islet near the northeastern tip of Pulau Lembeh, approximately 9 kilometers from the port of Bitung. Its geographic range extends to 16.2 nautical miles, serving as an active aid to navigation in the area. The tower's construction material is concrete.
