The Boca del Tule lighthouse is a 12-meter-high square skeletal tower featuring a gallery. It is painted white and carries a slatted daymark marked with red and white horizontal bands. The light source is positioned 18 meters above sea level, producing a white flash every 12 seconds with a geographic range of 12.7 nautical miles. The site is accessible to visitors, but the tower structure remains closed. This Mexican light is located in Baja California Sur, near Cabo San Lucas, which is 3.7 kilometers distant.
