Muelle Osmeña Lighthouse

The lighthouse rises 10 meters above the waterfront, featuring a white and blue painted coral stone structure with a red flashing signal every 5 seconds.

Built in 1910 during Spanish colonial period, the lighthouse aided maritime navigation through Mactan Channel and received its name from Philippine President Sergio Osmeña.

The lighthouse design reflects early 20th century Philippine maritime architecture with its use of local coral stone as the primary construction material.

The lighthouse beam extends 6 nautical miles across the water, providing essential navigation signals to vessels entering and departing the channel.

The structure now serves as a focal point for restoration efforts by Lapu-Lapu City government to preserve its original architectural features.
