About Mutsu Se Lighthouse
Mutsu Se Lighthouse was constructed in 1945 and first lit in the same year. It is a cylindrical concrete tower standing 8 meters tall, with its light positioned 11 meters above sea level. The structure is mounted on a concrete pier that rises from a reef off the southeastern coast of Hakata Shima. The tower is painted black with a single yellow horizontal band. Its white light emits one flash every 10 seconds, visible for 10.7 nautical miles. The lighthouse is located 1.4 kilometers from Hakatashima, the nearest port.
Why it matters: This lighthouse warns mariners of the reef it occupies, preventing groundings and ensuring safe passage in this busy coastal area.
