Hey.. this is such an interesting experience to try in Chennai. You can see the beautiful long stretch of Marina, the fishing boats, the broad view of beach road and the sprawling campuses on the other side.
Best thing is you can really gaze at the horizon for long - blending of sky and ocean end.
The premises is maintained really well. In the ground floor there are few boards explaining some interesting facts about lighthouses in India.
This light house is the only one in city limits in India & actively guides the ships and fishermen.
It will be great for kids too.
Simple things are the real fun.
Few suggestions
1. Make this the first item or early one in your itinerary. They actually open punctually - just be there before 10 AM to beat the crowd and also the security will allow for long time on the top.
2. Car and bike Parking is right behind the place. Take the lane next to the building.

A very nice view of Chennai from this fairly newest built lighthouse in the city. Beautiful to see Chennai during sunset. Be sure to purchase a photo pass if you intend to record and take photos with your camera. A nice vantage point to see the city in a distance as well as the ocean. You can also see a full view of the beaches from here. Well worth the visit when you're visiting for the first time.
