About Isozu Kō South Breakwater Lighthouse
The Isozu Kō South Breakwater Lighthouse is a cylindrical fiberglass tower constructed in 1961. Standing 10 meters tall, it emits an isophase green light with a 6-second cycle. This structure is situated at the extremity of the south breakwater, extending into the waters of Isozu Kō, an industrial harbor on the south side of Yokkaichi. The lighthouse's focal height is 14 meters, providing a geographic range of 11.6 nautical miles. The tower features a gallery and is painted white. In recent years, the Coast Guard has appealed for an end to graffiti on the lighthouse.
Why it matters: This lighthouse is important for guiding industrial shipping traffic into Isozu Kō, clearly marking the position of the south breakwater and preventing collisions within the busy port entrance.
