Capones Island lighthouse, Navigational lighthouse in Zambales, Philippines.

The lighthouse stands 65 feet tall with a white brick tower, double balconies, and a lantern room visible from 25 nautical miles at sea.

Built in 1890, the lighthouse guided international vessels traveling toward Subic Bay and Corregidor Island, marking a crucial period in Philippine maritime development.

The lighthouse holds the status of Important Cultural Property, representing the maritime traditions and colonial influences in the Philippine coastal regions.

Access to Capones Island requires a boat journey from Pundaquit Beach, with weather conditions determining the feasibility of lighthouse visits.

The original lamp system has been replaced with solar-powered equipment, while the keeper's house remains in its initial state.
