One Fathom Bank Lighthouse, Maritime lighthouse off the coast in Selangor, Malaysia.

The One Fathom Bank Lighthouse stands 43 meters tall with red and white horizontal stripes, guiding ships through the Strait of Malacca.

The original structure from 1907 was replaced in 1999 with a modern cylindrical steel tower to improve maritime navigation capabilities.

Malaysian Maritime Administration maintains this critical navigational point, marking the entrance to Port Klang and protecting vessels from dangerous sandbanks.

The lighthouse flashes white light four times every 20 seconds and remains visible up to 23 nautical miles away for approaching vessels.

Two lighthouses occupy the same bank: the restored historical structure from 1907 and the current operational tower from 1999.

Location: Selangor
