About Horido Lighthouse
This concrete lighthouse, built in 1995, stands 9 meters tall on a round concrete pier. Its cylindrical tower features a black upper half and a yellow lower half, with the light positioned 11 meters above sea level. The lighthouse emits a quick-flashing white light visible for 10.7 nautical miles. It is located on a rock in a channel about 8 km southwest of Dolsando, near Yeosu-si. The site is open to visitors arriving by boat, but the tower itself is closed.
Why it matters: The distinctive black and yellow tower aids in daytime identification, while its light marks a channel southwest of Dolsando, guiding maritime traffic.
