About Hamada North Detached Breakwater Lighthouse
A round cylindrical concrete tower painted white marks the northwest side of Hamada harbor, indicating the west end of a detached breakwater. Completed in 1993, the 9.5-meter structure rises to a focal height of 14 meters. It emits a green flash every 6 seconds, visible for 11.6 nautical miles. The tower features a flared top and is connected to a single-story concrete equipment shelter. While the site is accessible to boats, the tower itself is closed to the public.
Why it matters: This light is indispensable for safe navigation within Hamada harbor, specifically marking the critical western end of the detached breakwater.
