About Corpus Christi Cut B Outbound Range Rear Lighthouse
This steel, skeletal tower stands 39 meters tall and is mounted on a square platform supported by piles. It is situated off the south side of an island southeast of Ingleside, within Corpus Christi Bay. The light emits an isophase white flash on a 6-second cycle, with a geographic range of 16.9 nautical miles. A secondary quick-flashing yellow light also aids navigation. While the site is open to visitors, the tower itself is closed. The nearest port is Ingleside, 2.5 kilometers away.
Why it matters: This range light is indispensable for commercial and recreational vessels navigating the outbound channels of Corpus Christi Bay, ensuring they stay within safe, dredged pathways. Its precise alignment of lights prevents groundings and collisions in a busy port area.
