English Caye Light, Solar-powered lighthouse on English Caye, Belize.
The English Caye Light features a white lantern mounted on a 19-meter high framework tower with a square pyramidal shape and balcony.
Established in 1846, this metal skeletal lighthouse marked the beginning of structured maritime navigation in the waters near Belize District.
The lighthouse remains a central component of maritime heritage in Belize, guiding vessels through the Caribbean waters for over 175 years.
The beacon emits white flashes every 2.5 seconds and maintains visibility up to 11 nautical miles through its solar-powered system.
The structure combines traditional lighthouse architecture with modern solar technology while maintaining its original 19th-century framework design.
