About Budai Commercial Port Lighthouses Lighthouse
A cylindrical tower standing 16 meters tall, the Budai Commercial Port Lighthouse features distinctive red and white horizontal bands. Its light emits a white flash every 4 seconds, visible for nearly 20 nautical miles. Situated on the south breakwater, it marks the entrance to Budai Harbor, a significant port on Taiwan's western coast. The tower's focal height reaches 58 meters above sea level. While the lighthouse structure itself is closed to the public, the surrounding site is accessible, offering views of the harbor and coast.
Why it matters: This lighthouse is essential for guiding vessels into Budai Harbor, particularly the fast ferries that travel to the Penghu Islands. It serves as a key reference point for navigating the harbor entrance and helps maintain the smooth operation of this important transportation link.
