About Aburitori Se Lighthouse
This green, cylindrical concrete tower stands 9 meters tall, with its light positioned 12 meters above the water. It emits two green flashes every 8 seconds, visible for 11 nautical miles. The lighthouse is built on a round concrete pier and features a distinctive round hourglass-shaped concrete tower. Located off the southeast coast of Tsuwaji Shima, it marks a reef near the Katsuna Islands. The site is open to visitors, but the tower itself is closed.
Why it matters: The lighthouse warns vessels of a hazardous reef off Tsuwaji Shima within the Katsuna Islands. Its unique hourglass shape makes it an architecturally notable structure.
