About Sendai Outer Breakwater East End Lighthouse
A cylindrical concrete tower, 13 meters tall, was built in 2001 to serve as the Sendai Outer Breakwater East End lighthouse. It stands 16 meters above sea level at the end of a detached breakwater that protects Sendai harbor. The structure displays a green flashing light every 4 seconds, visible for 12.2 nautical miles. Its location is 3.2 kilometers from Sendai port. The lighthouse is operational and has survived a significant tsunami.
Why it matters: This lighthouse marks the eastern limit of the detached breakwater, guiding vessels into Sendai harbor. Its survival during a major tsunami underscores its importance for maritime safety in the region.
