About Kagoshima Honko Kō South Breakwater Lighthouse
This cylindrical concrete lighthouse stands 11 meters tall and exhibits a green light. The structure features a round tower that flares at the top, connected to a single-story equipment shelter. It emits two green flashes every six seconds. The lighthouse, operational since its construction, is located at the end of the southern section of Kagoshima's outer breakwater. The site is accessible to the public, offering views of the port and bay, but the tower itself is closed to visitors. Its geographic range is 11 nautical miles.
Why it matters: This light marks the southern limit of the outer breakwater for Kagoshima Honko Kō, guiding vessels clear of the structure and ensuring safe harbor entry.
