About Karang Torea Lighthouse
Karang Torea is a square green skeletal tower standing 8 meters tall, with its light positioned at the same height. The structure rests on a square platform supported by piles. It emits a single green flash every 3 seconds, visible for 9.7 nautical miles. The light is located on the eastern edge of the Torea reef in the southwestern Gulf of Boni. The site is accessible by boat, and while the grounds are open, the tower is closed to the public. The nearest port is Pare Pare, located 58.4 kilometers away.
Why it matters: This light marks the eastern edge of the Torea reef, warning vessels of a significant underwater hazard and guiding them through a critical passage in the northern Gulf of Boni towards the port of Bajoe.
