About Sidi Fredj Jetée Principale Lighthouse
Sidi Fredj Jetée Principale lighthouse is a cylindrical white concrete tower, 10 meters tall and with a focal height of 14 meters. It stands on a semicircular, 1-story pierhead structure at the end of the main breakwater. This lighthouse emits a white or green light that flashes every 4 seconds, with the color indicating the approach direction. The geographic range of this light is 11.6 nautical miles. The site is open to visitors, though the tower itself is closed to the public. The nearest major port is Alger, located 11.2 kilometers away.
Why it matters: This lighthouse is essential for guiding vessels safely into and out of the harbor, particularly given its directional white and green light which indicates the correct approach. Its position at the end of the main breakwater directly mitigates navigational hazards for ships entering the port.
