About Habomai Kō South Breakwater Lighthouse
This green lighthouse, built in 1967, is a concrete, cylindrical tower with an hourglass shape, standing 11 meters tall.

The tower features a lantern and gallery and stands 12 meters above sea level. Its nearest port is Nemuro, approximately 8 kilometers away.
