About Soyeojado Lighthouse
Also known as: Soyeojado (Soyoja-do)
A white, cylindrical concrete tower, 8 meters tall, was constructed and first illuminated in 2008 on an isolated islet in Yeoja Bay. The structure, which flares at the top, has a focal height of 15 meters. This lighthouse emits a white light, flashing once every 6 seconds, with a geographic range of 11.9 nautical miles. It is situated south of Soyeojado island, near Yeosu-si in South Korea's South Jeolla region. While the site is accessible to visitors, the tower itself is not open to the public.
Why it matters: This lighthouse is essential for safe passage within Yeoja Bay, warning vessels navigating around the isolated islet south of Soyeojado island and helping to define shipping lanes.
