Bagacay Point Lighthouse, Maritime beacon in Liloan, Philippines
The octagonal masonry tower rises 22 meters above the grounds, featuring a balcony and lantern that guides vessels through the Mactan Channel.
The Spanish government established the first lighthouse in 1857, while the current structure was completed in 1874 following multiple construction phases.
The lighthouse represents Filipino maritime heritage and serves as a gathering point for local photographers capturing northern Cebu coastal views.
The lighthouse projects white flashes every five seconds using a third-order Fresnel lens, with visibility extending to 20 nautical miles across the waters.
The structure maintains its original 5,000-square-meter government property, offering elevated perspectives over both Mactan Channel and Lapu-Lapu Island.
