About Punta Moat Lighthouse
Punta Moat is a square skeletal tower standing 12 meters tall, first lit in 2015. It emits a single white flash every 8 seconds. This modern structure replaced an earlier concrete skeletal tower. The previous tower had a daymark noted as missing or deteriorated by 2012. The lighthouse is situated on the north side of the Channel, marking the entrance to Paso Moat. The nearest port is Puerto Williams, located 31.2 kilometers away.
Why it matters: Punta Moat is essential for vessels transiting the Paso Moat, the passage between the mainland and Isla Picton.
