About Shi'b Mismārī (Mismari Reef Lighthouse
A skeletal white tower stands 14 meters tall, mounted on a triangular concrete pier. This structure is situated on the Mismari Reef, approximately 9.5 kilometers from Jeddah. The operational light emits three white or red flashes every 15 seconds, providing directional guidance. A 1922 sailing guide noted a beacon at this location, indicating its long-standing role in maritime safety. The tower's purpose is to warn vessels of the submerged hazards of the reef.
Why it matters: The lighthouse warns ships of the dangerous Mismari Reef, an underwater obstacle on the southern approaches to Jeddah.
