About Sekondi Lee Breakwater Lighthouse
The Sekondi Lee Breakwater Lighthouse is a square concrete tower, 5 meters tall, positioned at the end of the north breakwater in Sekondi's harbor. It displays a green flashing light every three seconds, visible for 10 nautical miles. The structure is painted in a distinctive black and white checkered pattern. Operational since its construction, it guides vessels safely into the port. The lighthouse itself is not open to the public, serving solely as a working navigational aid.
Why it matters: This lighthouse is essential for the safe entry of all vessels into Sekondi harbor, specifically warning them away from the end of the north breakwater, supporting Ghana's maritime trade.
