This cylindrical fiberglass lighthouse, standing 13 meters tall, marks the entrance to the Airhaji Estuary. Its unique structure features a round barbell shape atop a square platform, supported by piles that anchor it in the water. Positioned offshore near Airhaji, it aids vessels navigating the coastal waters of Pesisir Selatan Regency. The lighthouse emits a red light to guide mariners. While the site is accessible by boat, the tower itself is closed to the public.
Why it matters: The lighthouse warns of the shallow and shifting Airhaji Estuary entrance, a critical passage for local fishing fleets and smaller cargo vessels, helping to prevent groundings.
