The Lighthouse is located at the end of the breakwater mole on the East side of the entrance to Chania Harbor, near the North-Western corner of Crete. It was included in the Greek Lighthouse Network in 1913. In recent years, Chania has become a popular cruise ship port, making this one of the best-known and most-often-photographed Greek Lighthouses.
