About Khor Bateen (Khawr al Baţin) West Breakwater Lighthouse
This cylindrical concrete tower stands 10 meters tall and is painted yellow. Originally, it featured black and white horizontal bands for daytime visibility. The lighthouse is located northwest of the Emirates Palace Hotel in Abu Dhabi, marking the west breakwater of the Khor Bateen inlet. It emits a white flash every three seconds. The structure's current site status is unknown, suggesting potential access restrictions to the breakwater itself.
Why it matters: This lighthouse warns vessels of the submerged hazards associated with the west breakwater, which protects the sheltered waters of Khor Bateen and aids navigation into Abu Dhabi's inner harbor.
