About Sikka Range Front Lighthouse
A skeletal tower on a square platform supported by piles marks the approach to Sikka, India. Operational since 2011, this range front light exhibits a red signal. The structure stands near the port's main pier, with the nearest port just 0.6 kilometers away. The range lights were relocated about 500 meters to the southeast in 2021. Access to the site is permitted, though the tower itself is closed to visitors.
Why it matters: This light aids vessels in aligning their approach to Sikka's harbor, facilitating safe passage for both fishing boats and industrial shipping.
