REVIEWS
We went to the lighthouse passing the rice fields. Nice scenery and calm. People used to pay entrance ticket but not anymore. It is free now. The area isn't big but you can see sunset from the shores.

It was a public site. Everyone could enter and stepped on the ladders onto the top. Now it is a restricted area. Visitors are permitted to enteres the frontyard or outside the buliding. Lucky you, who had ever experienced to steps on the ladders..

The lovely lighthouse I've ever visited. It's in Madura island, Bangkalan regency. It located on the spot of the Java sea's shoreline. When the sun has been set, all the scenary is definitely scenic on lovely sky & thoughtfully architectural shape. Please drive away 39 mins from the city to the west & get along with this thing

A short visit to have a look and take photos. So many mosquitoes around - we were getting bitten too much. There's a lake out the back but trash everywhere. Needs a good clean up.
