About Sabine Bank Lighthouse
A square, concrete caisson lighthouse stands 6 meters tall, with its light positioned 22 meters above sea level. Originally built and first lit in 1904, the tower is painted white. It is situated in the Gulf of Mexico, south of the Sabine River's mouth. While the original structure remains, an automated beacon on a skeleton tower now serves the navigational purpose.
