About Tanjung Tembeling Lighthouse
The Tanjung Tembeling lighthouse is a 6-meter-high square skeletal tower situated 69 meters above sea level. Its distinctive coloring consists of a red tower with a single black vertical stripe. The light emits a white flash every 10 seconds, providing a geographic range of 21.3 nautical miles. Located just east of Kuantan, the lighthouse overlooks a resort on the cape. While the site is open to visitors, the tower itself remains closed to the public. The Kuantan Tembeling Resort oversees the accessible grounds.
