Manora Point Lighthouse, Maritime lighthouse in Manora Island, Pakistan
The white and red striped conical masonry tower reaches 38 meters high and includes a lantern gallery overlooking the Arabian Sea entrance to Karachi Harbor.
Built in 1889 during British colonial rule, this lighthouse replaced an earlier 1851 structure to guide maritime traffic entering the expanding Port of Karachi.
The lighthouse stands near St Paul's Church on Manora Island, an area that ancient Greek records identify as part of the historical city of Debal.
The hyperradiant Fresnel lens installed in 1908 projects light across 26 nautical miles, directing vessels toward the Port of Karachi entrance.
The Karachi Port Trust maintains this fourth tallest lighthouse in Pakistan, which features distinctive horizontal bands visible from the seaward approach.
