About Tokashiki Kō Lighthouse
A cylindrical concrete tower built in 1989, this 12-meter structure stands at the end of Tokashiki harbor's south breakwater. It features a flared top and is attached to a single-story equipment shelter. The lighthouse emits a green flashing light every 3 seconds, visible for 12.2 nautical miles. The site is open to the public, though the tower itself is closed. It is located on Tokashiki Shima, the largest island in the Kerama Islands group.
Why it matters: The lighthouse precisely marks the end of the south breakwater, guiding vessels into Tokashiki harbor and aiding local fishing boats and ferries.
