Napindan Lighthouse

The Napindan Lighthouse is a concrete structure located where the Pasig River meets Laguna de Bay, guiding maritime traffic through this important channel. The tower uses solar power for its navigation signal and was designed specifically to help boats navigate safely through this busy waterway.

The original structure served as a gathering place for independence leaders in 1896 during the Philippine independence movement. It was destroyed in 1899 and later rebuilt as the modern tower that stands today.

The lighthouse represents a connection between maritime navigation needs and the Philippine independence struggle, marking a significant location for local communities.

The lighthouse is accessible to visitors and maintained by the Philippine Coast Guard, keeping it in good working condition. You can reach the site easily as it sits on one of the main waterways in the region.

The current tower runs entirely on solar power, an unusual choice for a lighthouse in a region with traditional electricity sources. This technology makes the operation independent and sustainable in an area that regularly faces power outages.
