Location & Light Range
About Narao Kō South Breakwater Lighthouse
This 10-meter white cylindrical concrete post, topped by a green flashing light, marks the detached south breakwater of Narao harbor. The structure includes a 1-story concrete equipment room at its base. Its light characteristic is a single green flash every 3 seconds, visible for 11.9 nautical miles. The lighthouse was relocated in 2014 to its present position on a shorter, detached breakwater. The site is accessible to the public, though the tower itself is closed. Its nearest port is Shukunoura, 3.1 kilometers away.
Why it matters: This light marks the detached south breakwater, guiding vessels into Narao harbor and preventing collisions.
