About Sesaki Hana Lighthouse
Sesaki Hana lighthouse is a white, cylindrical concrete tower 11 meters high, with a focal height of 14 meters. It is situated on a reef off the northeastern tip of Taka Shima, an island between Hirado Shima and Azuchi Ō Shima. The structure features a round concrete tower with a gallery and a square equipment enclosure. Its white light emits two flashes every six seconds, visible for 11.6 nautical miles. The site is open to visitors, but the tower itself is closed to the public. The nearest port is Hirado, 4.2 kilometers away.
Why it matters: This lighthouse is essential for safe navigation through the complex island channels, specifically warning vessels of the reef near Taka Shima's northeastern coast.
