This lighthouse was first erected in Bajo Apo island in Apo Reef Natural Park in 1903 as part of the Maritime Lighting Plan of Spain. The design planning of the original section first began in 1896. The construction of the lighthouse itself was halted momentarily during the eruption of the Philippine Revolution and the Spanish-American war and before being finished later on by both the Americans and Filipinos. The lighthouse started warning incoming ships of the shallow reefs surrounding the Atoll when it first lit up in 1906.
