About Jeungcho Lighthouse
This concrete lighthouse was built in 2010 and first lit the same year. It features a cylindrical tower painted red, standing 8 meters tall with a focal height of 11 meters. The structure is octagonal in its concrete form. Its light characteristic is a red flash every 6 seconds. Jeungcho Lighthouse is located on a reef south of the channel connecting Changseongdo and Namhaedo, opposite Dangjeo Hang. The site is accessible by boat and open to visitors, though the tower itself is closed to the public. The nearest port is Samcheonpo/Sacheon, 5.8 kilometers away.
Why it matters: Jeungcho Lighthouse is essential for guiding vessels through the channel between Changseongdo and Namhaedo, serving as a specific warning for the reef on the channel's southern side.
