About Byeondo Lighthouse
Also known as: Byeondo (Pyon Do)
The Byeondo Lighthouse is an active, octagonal concrete tower painted red, standing 12 meters tall. Its light is positioned 14 meters above sea level and emits a white flash every four seconds. This lighthouse is situated on a small island at the eastern entrance to the channel between Anjwado and Palgeumdo. The surrounding area consists of numerous islands and complex waterways. Its location is approximately 10.7 kilometers from the nearest port of Mokpo.
Why it matters: This lighthouse is important for guiding vessels through the passage between Anjwado and Palgeumdo, a key waterway for local shipping and fishing operations. Its light prevents groundings in the narrow, island-dotted channel.
