About Lapuko Lighthouse
This square skeletal tower, standing 20 meters tall and painted white, became operational in 2019. It emits a single white flash every 3 seconds from a focal height of 21 meters, with a geographic range of 13.4 nautical miles. The structure is located directly on the wharf at Lapuko, which is a port facility on Staring Bay, southeast of Kendari on Sulawesi. The site is open to visitors, but the tower itself is closed to the public. The nearest port is Kendari, 12.1 kilometers away.
Why it matters: The lighthouse facilitates safe navigation for vessels accessing the developing port at Lapuko, defining the entrance to the wharf and supporting regional economic activity.
