Plumb Point Lighthouse, Maritime beacon in Saint Andrew, Jamaica
The lighthouse consists of a two-stage cylindrical tower with a white exterior and red lantern roof, reaching a height of 21 meters.
The construction of Plumb Point Lighthouse in 1853 followed the establishment of Morant Point Lighthouse, marking the development of maritime navigation in Jamaica.
The lighthouse stands as a representation of Jamaica's maritime heritage within the Port Royal Protected Area, serving the nation's naval infrastructure.
The lighthouse emits a white light visible for 40 kilometers over the eastern channel and a red light visible for 20 kilometers over the south channel.
Since its construction in 1853, the lighthouse light has only experienced one interruption, during the earthquake of 1907.
