Basco Lighthouse

The structure is a 6-storey building; the viewing deck at the 5th floor; Ivatan house (near the main structure) is of the vernacular architecture.

Aside from serving as lighthouse, it can be a tourist's attraction. The viewing deck is a perfect location where one views the whole of Batan Island from end to end; one can also have a dear view of Sabtang Island in the south of Basco and Itbayat in the north.
