About Daeheuksando (Taeheuksando, Taehuksando) South Breakwater Lighthouse
This octagonal concrete tower, standing 8 meters tall with a focal height of 13 meters, emits a green light. Its characteristic is a single green flash every 6 seconds, visible for 11.3 nautical miles. The lighthouse guides vessels around the southern tip of Daeheuksando island, part of the Dadohaehaesang National Park. The site is open to visitors, providing views of the sea and island, but the tower itself is not accessible.
Why it matters: This lighthouse marks the southern breakwater of Daeheuksando, an important navigational point for ships approaching or departing the island's port. It helps prevent groundings on the breakwater, which protects the harbor from the open sea.
