About Amasra North Breakwater Lighthouse
This square concrete tower, standing 10 meters tall, was constructed in 2023 at the end of Amasra's north breakwater. It features a castellated gallery and is painted white with a green horizontal band. The light emits a green flash every 6 seconds, with a focal height of 14 meters. This structure replaced an earlier light that was first established in 1961. The tower's geographic range is 11.6 nautical miles. Visitors can access the site, but the tower itself is closed to the public.
Why it matters: The light is essential for guiding vessels into Amasra's port and warning them of the breakwater's end.
