About Kamino Shima East Coast Lighthouses Lighthouse
This cylindrical concrete tower, standing 9.5 meters tall, was first lit in 1964. It is attached to a single-story concrete equipment room and is painted white. The lighthouse is situated on the northeastern tip of a peninsula, connected to the mainland by a narrow isthmus, at the far northeast corner of Tsushima. Its focal height reaches 23 meters, providing a geographic range of 13.8 nautical miles. The light emits an occulting white flash every 8 seconds.
Why it matters: This lighthouse warns vessels of a reef located approximately 300 meters to its east, a significant hazard in this challenging coastal area.
