About Punta Manzano Lighthouse
Also known as: Punta Manzano (Isla Chaulinec)
The Punta Manzano lighthouse is a 7.5-meter-tall cylindrical concrete tower situated near the southeastern tip of Isla Chaulinec. It displays a white light with a single red horizontal band. The focal height of the light is 25 meters, and it has a geographic range of 14.3 nautical miles. This light emits one white flash every 5 seconds. The site is open to the public, but the tower itself is closed.
Why it matters: This lighthouse is essential for vessels transiting the southern entrance of the Canal Apiao, a critical passage linking the Gulfs of Corcovado and Ancud, and warns of the landmass near the southeastern point of Isla Chaulinec.
