About Akaiwa Saki Lighthouse
Akaiwa Saki Lighthouse, built of concrete in 1952, stands 9.5 meters tall as a cylindrical white tower attached to an equipment shelter. Located overlooking the Sea of Japan at the southwestern tip of Teuri Tō island, its light is visible for 28.5 nautical miles. The lighthouse emits a white flash every seven seconds. The site is open to the public, offering access to an observation platform with views of the surrounding cliffs and sea, though the tower itself is closed to visitors. It lies 2.1 kilometers from the nearest port, Teuri.
Why it matters: This lighthouse marks the southwestern tip of Teuri Tō, guiding vessels navigating the Sea of Japan and helping to prevent groundings on the island's coastline.
