Lengkuas Island Lighthouse, lighthouse
Lengkuas Island Lighthouse is a tower structure on a small island in the Bangka-Belitung archipelago. The building stands on rocky ground and visitors can climb inside to view the surrounding seascape and nearby islands.
The lighthouse was built during Dutch colonial times to guide ships safely through the waters. The structure remains standing today as it has for over a century.
The island is accessible only by boat from nearby ports on the mainland. Visitors should check weather conditions before traveling, as sea conditions can change quickly depending on tides and wind.
The island has remained relatively undeveloped due to its remote location and difficult access over the years. This unspoiled character gives visitors a quieter experience compared to busier tourist destinations in the region.
