About Torii Saki Lighthouse
Constructed in 1966, Torii Saki Lighthouse is a 10-meter concrete tower with red and white horizontal bands. It stands on a large rock just offshore, connected to the mainland by a concrete walkway. The structure features a round tower with two galleries atop a square, single-story equipment room. Its focal height reaches 27 meters, and it emits a white light, flashing once every 8 seconds. The lighthouse is situated about 20 kilometers northeast of Henashi Saki, near the city of Fukaura in Aomori Prefecture.
Why it matters: This lighthouse is essential for mariners navigating a coastal turning point, providing critical guidance where the shoreline changes direction. Its light specifically illuminates an offshore reef, directly preventing groundings.
