About Sagi Shima Lighthouse
This operational lighthouse stands at the northeastern point of Sagi Shima island, guiding vessels in the waters southwest of the port of Mihara. Constructed of concrete, it is a cylindrical tower standing 7 meters tall, with its light positioned 27 meters above sea level. The white light emits one flash every 8 seconds. In 2023, the round white concrete tower was refurbished and repainted. The site is open to the public, though the tower itself remains closed.
Why it matters: The Sagi Shima lighthouse is essential for vessels navigating the busy shipping area and transiting to and from the port of Mihara.
