About Mikoshi Hana Lighthouse
Also known as: Mikoshi Hana (Mikoshibana)
This concrete lighthouse stands 9 meters tall on a promontory approximately 3 kilometers southwest of Chiburi harbor. Its semielliptical tower is painted white and features a gallery, with the light emitted through a window. The focal height of the light is 55 meters, providing a geographic range of 19.4 nautical miles. It emits a single white flash every 4 seconds. The site is open to the public, though the tower is closed.
Why it matters: The lighthouse assists navigation by projecting its beam onto a separate beacon situated on a nearby reef, thereby highlighting this underwater hazard to mariners.
