About Bǎitóu Zhōu Lighthouse
Bǎitóu Zhōu is a square white concrete tower with a gallery, standing 10 meters tall. Its focal height is 15 meters, and it emits a white light with one flash every 8 seconds. The lighthouse was built in 2008 on a small island at the eastern tip, approximately 3.3 kilometers from the nearest port of Huizhou. This modern navigational aid has a geographic range of 11.9 nautical miles. The site is open to visitors, though access to the tower itself is restricted.
Why it matters: This lighthouse is essential for guiding vessels navigating the channel into Huizhou harbor, marking a safe passage alongside another light on the opposite side. Its operation directly supports the commercial maritime activities of Huizhou by ensuring secure approaches and departures for ships.
