About Tawau Division: Semporna District Lighthouses Lighthouse
A 24-meter cylindrical steel skeletal tower stands as a navigational aid in the Semporna District. Painted with red and white horizontal bands, its light is visible for 14.7 nautical miles. The white light produces a single flash every 20 seconds. This structure is located near Labuan Haji, approximately 19.9 kilometers away. The site is open to visitors, but the tower itself is not accessible.
Why it matters: This lighthouse warns vessels of the numerous reefs and shoals within the Semporna archipelago, guiding traffic through busy routes connecting the islands and the mainland.
