About Laem Wat Lighthouse
Also known as: Laem Wat (Laem Wang)
A square white concrete tower, 9 meters high, stands on the east coast of Ko Sichang, Thailand, marking the tip of a sharp promontory. The structure, which includes a gallery and is attached to an equipment shelter, has a focal height of 15 meters. Its light emits a white flash every 3 seconds, visible for 11.9 nautical miles. The lighthouse is situated near the island's nearest port, Koh Sichang, just 1 kilometer away. The site is open to visitors, though the tower itself is closed to the public.
Why it matters: This lighthouse aids vessels navigating the waters off the east coast of Ko Sichang, particularly around the promontory it marks.
