長尾鼻, Coastal lighthouse in Tottori Prefecture, Japan

Nagao Misaki lighthouse rises from a coastal headland and emits regular light signals across the water to guide ships. The white tower stands approximately 68 meters above sea level and defines the landscape with its distinctive profile.

The lighthouse commenced operations in 1927 as a response to the need for improved maritime safety in the Sea of Japan. It has continued this navigational role steadily since its construction without major interruption.

The lighthouse serves as a landmark that local fishing communities recognize and depend on as part of their daily maritime life. It anchors the connection between the people living here and the waters that have shaped their economy.

The site is accessible by narrow roads branching from the main highway, with free parking available nearby. Visitors should prepare for uneven ground and coastal winds, especially during stormy weather conditions.

The beam from this lighthouse reaches far across the water with exceptional strength and clarity for ship navigation. This powerful signal makes it one of the most reliable reference points for vessels traveling along this stretch of coast.
