About Teluk Kendari No. 2 Lighthouse
Also known as: Teluk Kendari No. 2 (Range Rear)
This white, square skeletal tower, standing 12 meters tall, is constructed of metal and features a gallery. Its focal plane is 11 meters above the water, and it emits a green flashing light with a characteristic of one flash every 2 seconds. Originally located offshore to mark a point in Teluk Kendari, the light was moved onshore in 2023. The nearest port is Kendari, Sulawesi, approximately 1 kilometer away. The site is accessible to the public, but the tower itself is closed.
Why it matters: The light's 2023 relocation demonstrates its ongoing adaptation to ensure safe passage for vessels entering and departing the busy port of Kendari. Its distinct flash pattern aids mariners in identifying it among other lights within the bay.
