About Sadong Hang West Breakwater Lighthouse
This octagonal concrete tower, standing 8 meters tall, was built in 2001 to mark the end of the west breakwater at Sadong Hang. Painted red, its focal height is 10 meters above sea level. The structure emits a red flash every 5 seconds, with a geographic range of 10.4 nautical miles. Access to the site is permitted, though the tower itself is closed to the public. The lighthouse is situated 16.2 kilometers from the nearest port, Wando.
Why it matters: The lighthouse's distinctive red flash aids navigation into Sadong Hang, guiding vessels safely past the west breakwater and into the harbor.
