About Oyster Bay Range Rear Lighthouse
This white masonry tower stands 20 meters tall, with its light positioned 37 meters above sea level. A single red stripe adorns its exterior. The structure also includes an adjacent single-story equipment room. It emits a quick white flash, visible for 12 nautical miles, guiding vessels through this section of the Tanzanian coast.
Why it matters: The Oyster Bay Range Rear Lighthouse functions alongside its front counterpart to alert vessels to the cliffs of the Msasani peninsula.
