About Tsuriboko Yama Lighthouse
Established in 1958, Tsuriboko Yama lighthouse is a white concrete post tower standing 7.5 meters high, attached to a 1-story equipment building. It is situated on a promontory on the south side of the Shichurui harbor entrance in Matsue, Shimane Prefecture. The lighthouse emits an isophase white light on a 6-second cycle from a focal height of 122 meters, with a geographic range of 27.1 nautical miles. The site is open to the public, though the tower itself is closed. Access involves a hike along a trail from the nearest port, Hoda, which is 0.2 kilometers away.
Why it matters: This lighthouse is essential for the safe navigation of vessels entering and departing Shichurui harbor, particularly given its position at the harbor's entrance.
