About Matsuyama Kō Outer Breakwater Lighthouse
This cylindrical, red concrete lighthouse stands 16 meters tall on the northern end of Matsuyama's detached outer breakwater. Its lantern and gallery are situated atop the round tower. The light emits a single red flash every 7 seconds, visible for 12.7 nautical miles. Located 0.3 kilometers from the nearest port, this active navigational aid sits at the capital city of Ehime prefecture's harbor entrance. Access to the tower and its site is restricted to boat entry only.
Why it matters: This light marks the extremity of the outer breakwater, guiding vessels safely into Matsuyama Kō and protecting the port from the open sea.
