It is painted black with a single red horizontal band, featuring a conical base and double galleries atop its cylindrical structure.

Situated about halfway between the mainland and Sato Saki, it is anchored by a round concrete pier on a rock exposed to the sea. The nearest port, Satsumasendai, is 7.7 kilometers away. The site is not open to the public.
