Georyundo Lighthouse is a 14-meter tall cylindrical concrete tower located on an islet off the western tip of Wido in South Korea's Jeonbuk State. It displays a white light with a single flash every 6 seconds. The structure is painted black with a single red horizontal band, and its focal height reaches 35 meters, providing a geographic range of 16.2 nautical miles. The lighthouse site is accessible by boat, though the tower itself remains closed to the public. Its nearest port is Gunsan, approximately 29.6 kilometers away.
