About Vilamoura Marina East Mole Lighthouse
A cylindrical tower, 7 meters high, stands at the end of the east mole, marking the entrance to Vilamoura Marina. The structure is painted with green and white horizontal bands and features a gallery. Its light emits a single green flash every 4 seconds, visible for 11.6 nautical miles. The focal height of the light is 14 meters above sea level. The site is open to the public, but the tower itself is closed.
Why it matters: This light is essential for the safe entry and exit of vessels at Vilamoura Marina, helping to prevent groundings and collisions in a high-traffic area.
