Ashdod Light (Hebrew: מגדלור אשדוד), is a lighthouse in Ashdod, Israel. It is located in Yona Hill (Hebrew: גבעת יונה), a above sea level hill at the northern part Ashdod, just south of the Port of Ashdod. The site and the lighthouse are closed to the public.
The lighthouse is listed as active on the NGA List of Lights of 2019, as well as on the April 2021 update of The Lighthouse Directory. However, some less official sources claim that it is inactive at least since November 2009.
The lighthouse appeared on an Israeli stamp issued 26 November 2009. It also appeared on the first day of issue postmark for that series of stamps.
The lighthouse was built in 1966 as part of the construction of the port facilities. It used the glass optic removed from the Jaffa Light which was decommissioned in the same year.
The lighthouse was a distinctive mark of the city of Ashdod, appearing in many publications.
