Hatsushima Lighthouse, White lighthouse on Hatsushima Island, Japan

The Hatsushima Lighthouse stands 16 meters tall with a tower reaching 63 meters above sea level on the highest point of Hatsushima Island.

The lighthouse began operations on March 25, 1959, initially powered by its own generator before switching to Tokyo Electric Power supply in 1967.

The lighthouse exhibition center, established in 2006, presents displays about maritime navigation history and the technical functions of lighthouses.

Visitors can access the lighthouse via a 25-minute boat ride from Atami Port, followed by a 15-minute uphill walk, with entry fees of 300 yen for adults.

The structure features alternating red and green flashes every 20 seconds, visible from a distance of 31 kilometers across Sagami Bay.
