Samekado Lighthouse, Maritime guidance structure on Tanesashi Coast, Hachinohe, Japan.
The concrete lighthouse rises 22.73 meters above the Pacific Ocean, displaying a white exterior against the green coastal meadows.
Constructed in 1938, the lighthouse became instrumental for ships navigating their way into Hachinohe Port during the maritime expansion period.
The lighthouse stands as one of Japan's top 50 maritime structures, marking the entrance to the northern section of Sanriku Fukko National Park.
Visitors can reach the site via a 40-minute walk from Same Station or by taking the Tanesashi Sightseeing Bus Umineko to Seagull View Hotel.
