This square pyramidal skeletal tower stands 12 meters tall and is mounted on a square platform supported by piles. The structure is painted black with a single yellow horizontal band. It emits a white flash every 12 seconds, visible for a geographic range of 11 nautical miles. The lighthouse is located on a small island on the eastern side of Sibolga Bay. The site is accessible to visitors, though the tower itself remains closed to the public. The nearest port is Sibolga, Sumatra, approximately 2 kilometers away.
Why it matters: The lighthouse serves as a critical navigational aid for vessels entering and transiting Sibolga Bay, a significant route for the port of Sibolga.
