About Hilo Range Rear Lighthouse
The Hilo Range Rear light is a 25-meter square tapered skeletal tower painted white. It features a rectangular daymark, red with a white vertical stripe. The light emits a green isophase signal every 6 seconds. Situated on a bluff off Kalanianaole Avenue, east of the Hilo cruise ship pier, its focal height reaches 39 meters. This light provides a geographic range of 16.9 nautical miles and is positioned to guide large vessels across Hilo harbor to the cruise ship quay. The tower itself is 19.2 kilometers from the nearest port of Hilo.
Why it matters: This range light is essential for the safe transit of large vessels, including cruise ships, into Hilo harbor, guiding them precisely to the quay. Its strategic placement on a bluff ensures critical alignment information for mariners navigating the busy port entrance.
