About
Pungudutivu Lighthouse is a lighthouse on the island of Pungudutivu in northern Sri Lanka. The lighthouse is a 15.2 metres (50 ft) square stone block tower. It is likely that the lighthouse was originally constructed as a survey tower, part of a network of land survey towers erected across the country by the Department of Land Survey in 1857. It is located on the most southern extremity of the island.
