About Karaikal Range Front Lighthouse
This active square skeletal tower, constructed of steel, stands 16 meters tall with a focal height of 19 meters. It emits a white flash every 5 seconds, guiding vessels toward a modern port located approximately 12 kilometers south of the traditional Karaikal harbor in India. The lighthouse is situated 0.3 kilometers from the nearest port facilities. Its geographic range extends to 12.9 nautical miles.
Why it matters: The synchronized white flash with a rear light establishes a critical range for vessels entering the new port, ensuring precise navigation and preventing groundings.
