The '''Monkey Beacon''' is a [[tower]] in the [[Bloons TD (series)|''Bloons TD'' series]], introduced in ''[[Bloons Tower Defense 3 (Flash)|Bloons Tower Defense 3]]''. It is a gray satellite dish that passively buffs the stats of any other towers in its range.

Starting with [[Bloons TD 5|''Bloons TD 5'']], the Monkey Beacon was replaced with the [[Monkey Village]], though the name was kept for one of its [[Monkey Beacon (BTD5)|upgrades]] for that generation of games.

At first, the Monkey Beacon only buffs tower [[range]] by a small amount, but as it gets upgraded, it gains the ability to buff [[attack speed]] as well. In ''[[Bloons TD 4]]'', it also has an upgrade that grants towers the ability to target [[Camo Bloon (BTD4)|Camo Bloons]]. Its ultimate upgrade in both of its appearances is one that calls the [[Super Monkey Storm]], wiping every non-[[MOAB-Class Bloon]] off the screen for a somewhat hefty price (with a cooldown in ''BTD4''). Compared to other towers, it is somewhat expensive.
