About Ha Shima Lighthouse
Also known as: Ha Shima (Kashima, Morozaki)
This cylindrical concrete lighthouse stands 10 meters tall, with its upper half painted yellow and the lower half black. It is situated on a small skerry off Morozaki, at the southern tip of the Chita Peninsula. The light emits white flashes in a pattern of six quick flashes followed by one long flash every 15 seconds. The lighthouse's focal plane is 11 meters above sea level. While the tower is closed to the public, the site itself is accessible by boat. The nearest port, Morozaki, is just 0.4 kilometers away.
Why it matters: The lighthouse serves to mark the skerry it occupies off Morozaki, a significant point at the tip of the Chita Peninsula. Its distinctive light pattern offers an unmistakable identifier for ships navigating the coastal waters.
