About Jazīrat Al Fahl Lighthouse
A pyramidal metal tower stands 6.5 meters tall on Jazīrat Al Fahl. The tower is topped by an enclosed upper section featuring white triangular daymarks. Its light emits a single white flash every 15 seconds, visible for 24.3 nautical miles. This structure is situated on an island approximately 2.5 kilometers from Mina' al Fahl. The site is accessible to the public, but the tower itself remains closed.
Why it matters: This lighthouse is important for vessels navigating the approaches to Masqaṭ and serves as a warning for Fahl Island, a navigational hazard.
