About Ando Lighthouse
Also known as: Ando (Baekeum, Baekkum, Paekkum)
Ando Lighthouse stands on the northeastern tip of Ando, a small island southeast of Geumodo in South Korea's South Jeolla region. The lighthouse features an octagonal white concrete tower that is 9 meters tall, with its light situated 22 meters above sea level. It emits a single white flash every six seconds, visible for 13.6 nautical miles. The site is accessible to the public, but the tower itself remains closed. Its nearest port is Yeosu, 15 kilometers away.
Why it matters: This light helps define the northeastern extremity of Ando, assisting vessels navigating the waters off Geumodo.
