About Jodo Approach East Lighthouse
This 22-meter beacon is located approximately 1 kilometer east of the main Jodo lighthouse. It stands on a square platform supported by four large piles, with the lower half of the tower painted black and the upper half yellow. The light has a focal height of 16 meters and a geographic range of 12.2 nautical miles. It emits six quick white flashes followed by a long white flash within a 45-second cycle. The site is accessible by boat, though the tower itself is closed to the public.
Why it matters: This light aids vessels in identifying the correct approach to Jodo, working with the main lighthouse to define safe channels and prevent confusion due to its distinct flash pattern.
