About Fujairah Control Tower Lighthouse
The Fujairah Control Tower, operational since its establishment, emits a white flash every 3 seconds from a focal height of 49 meters. This aid to navigation has a geographic range of 18.5 nautical miles. It is situated near the base of the main south breakwater of Fujairah harbor, approximately 1.6 kilometers from the nearest port facilities. The tower's purpose is to guide vessels safely into and out of Fujairah's busy harbor, ensuring smooth passage through its shipping lanes. While the tower and its site are closed to the public, its light remains an active and integral part of port operations.
Why it matters: This control tower directly supports the safe navigation of commercial vessels utilizing Fujairah's port and warns ships about the presence of the main south breakwater, preventing potential collisions in a high-traffic area.
