Kanazawa Kō East Breakwater Lighthouse
Location & Light Range
About Kanazawa Kō East Breakwater Lighthouse
A white, conical concrete lighthouse built in 1976 stands 9.5 meters tall. It features a 1-story equipment shelter at its base, with the entire structure painted white. The light emits an isophase green flash every 6 seconds from a focal height of 13 meters. This structure marks the eastern breakwater of Kanazawa Port, extending into the sea. The site is accessible to the public, though the tower itself remains closed.
Why it matters: This lighthouse is essential for guiding vessels navigating the entrance to Kanazawa Port, clearly marking the end of the east breakwater to prevent collisions or groundings.
