Raffles Marina Lighthouse, Singapore


Since young, I have always been fascinated by lighthouses. The structure, the purpose, the location of lighthouses are so interesting and unique. And in the tiny island of Singapore, one of the most talked about lighthouse has to be the Raffles Marina Lighthouse.

Located at Tuas (very near to the Second Link), this is indeed an ulu place to visit. However, it's pretty easy to find the place cos it's within walking distance from Tuas Link MRT (EW33). If you are planning for a visit, the evening sunset is the best time in my personal opinion.

Even the view from Tuas Link MRT is awesome!



The lighthouse is open to public but do take note that the opening hours are from 8am to 10pm daily.



Along the jetty is definitely a popular place for the anglers. We saw a few couple taking wedding shots too.



Raffles Marina Lighthouse also known as Johor Straits Lighthouse was built in 1994, it stands at 12 metres tall and is still in operation, flashes every 10 seconds with a beam that reaches 15 metres.
