Malabrigo Point Lighthouse, Spanish colonial lighthouse in Lobo, Philippines

The red and white brick lighthouse stands 17 meters tall on a cliff, overlooking Verde Island Passage and providing guidance to passing vessels.

Spanish engineer Guillermo Brockman designed this maritime structure in 1891, which began operations on October 1, 1896, as part of a network of 55 lighthouses.

Two markers installed by the National Historical Commission in 2006 designate this structure as a National Historical Landmark of the Philippines.

The lighthouse remains operational under the Philippine Coast Guard, utilizing modern solar-powered technology to guide ships through dangerous waters.

The name Malabrigo originates from Spanish words meaning 'bad shelter', referring to the dangerous rocky coastline and strong currents in this area.

Inception: July 25, 1994

Operator: Batangas Station, Philippine Coast Guard
