Majahual Lighthouse, Maritime navigation structure in Costa Maya, Mexico
The 22-meter-tall white lighthouse stands at the beginning of the malecon, guiding vessels through the Caribbean coastal waters of Costa Maya.
Built in 2006 as part of the Costa Maya port development, the lighthouse marks the evolution of this region from a small fishing village.
The lighthouse represents the intersection of maritime traditions and modern coastal life, where local fishermen meet international cruise tourism.
Located near the Mahahual photo sign, the lighthouse provides a reference point for orientation along the beach area and coastal attractions.
The structure overlooks a section of the Mesoamerican Barrier Reef, where clear waters create natural pools for shore snorkeling.
