About Sakiyama Misaki Lighthouse
Sakiyama Misaki Lighthouse stands on a promontory marking the entrance to Fuse harbor on the northeast coast of Dōgo. This cylindrical concrete tower, built in 1967, stands 10 meters tall, with its light positioned 94 meters above sea level. It emits a single white flash every 6 seconds, visible for 24.2 nautical miles. The structure's distinctive hourglass shape serves as a visual landmark for vessels approaching Okinoshima. A separate white spotlight is also directed at a nearby reef, offering an additional safety measure.
Why it matters: This lighthouse is essential for vessels entering and departing Fuse harbor, a key port on Dōgo's northeast coast. The lighthouse's specific spotlight mitigates the hazard of a nearby reef.
