About Pulau Sialu Lighthouse
Also known as: Pulau Sialu (Sungai Batu Pahat)
Constructed in 1913, the Pulau Sialu lighthouse is a 15-meter masonry tower painted white, with a focal height of 17 meters. It is situated on a small, uninhabited island near the Batu Pahat estuary. The light emits a single white flash every 3 seconds, with a geographic range of 12.4 nautical miles. Originally built to aid navigation around the estuary, the lighthouse was deactivated in 1978 and its lantern removed. However, it has since been reactivated and is listed on the Malaysian light list. Access to the island is by boat, and public visitation is not practical.
Why it matters: This lighthouse helps define the shipping lanes near the Batu Pahat estuary. Its reactivation indicates its continued relevance for maritime navigation in the area.
