Gorda Point Lighthouse

Gorda Point Lighthouse (Filipino: Parola ng Punta Gorda), is a historic lighthouse located about 248 kilometers (154 mi) southeast of Manila in Barangay Cawayan, San Agustin, Romblon, Philippines.

It was built atop a promontory at Gorda Point, on the northeast tip of Tablas Island, in Barangay Cawayan in San Agustin, Romblon.

On 7 May 2015, the Philippine Coast Guard, in a Notice to Mariners on its website, announced that the lighthouse had been restored into normal operation on 16 April 2015, with the light now showing three white flashes every 15 seconds.
