About Iljonggot Lighthouse
Also known as: Iljonggot (Geumodo Hang)
Iljonggot Lighthouse is a cylindrical concrete tower, painted yellow with a black horizontal band, standing 11 meters tall. It was built and first lit in 2008. The structure is mounted on a round concrete pier and features a double gallery. It is situated just off the southwestern tip of Geumodo, marking the south side of the entrance to the bay leading to Geumodo harbor. The lighthouse emits a white light with one flash every 10 seconds, visible for 11 nautical miles. The site is open to visitors, though the tower itself is closed.
Why it matters: This lighthouse is essential for vessels entering and exiting Geumodo harbor, particularly those navigating the bay's southern approach. Its light assists in preventing groundings on the southwestern tip of Geumodo.
