About Susa Kō Lighthouse
Also known as: Susa Kō (Tenjin Shima)
A white, cylindrical concrete tower, 11 meters in height, marks the entrance to Susa Bay. It features a large concrete lantern and gallery. The light itself is white, with a single flash every 3 seconds, visible for 19 nautical miles. The lighthouse stands on an island approximately 0.9 kilometers from the port of Susa. It operates from a focal height of 52 meters above sea level. The structure is a round, concrete tower.
Why it matters: This lighthouse guides maritime traffic into and out of Susa Bay, preventing groundings on the island at its mouth. Its consistent light supports local fishing and commercial activities by ensuring safe navigation of the entrance channel.
