The tiny rock island, barely 20 meters across and 8 meters high, was discovered and named in 1787 by the French La Perouse expedition, whose warning name proved apt given the strait's fog and shifting currents. For over a century the only warning mariners had was the roar of sea lions gathering on the bare rock, since attempts to land equipment were repeatedly thwarted by the animals; only in the late 1930s was a tower with an acetylene light finally installed. Its light remained weak, and in 1948 the Filipino ship Doña Trinidad ran onto the reefs there, followed by the rescue tug Ingul also grounding nearby, prompting a full replacement of the lighthouse equipment. Today it is an automatic white concrete tower 18 meters tall with a flashing white light visible up to 13 miles and an automatic radio beacon, visited by staff only occasionally for maintenance.

Источник: Комарицын А. А., Корякин В. И., Романов В. Г. «Маяки России (исторические очерки)». СПб.: ГУНиО МО РФ, 2001 (доп. тираж 2005).
В проливе Лаперуза, в 8 милях к юго-востоку от южной оконечности острова Сахалин — мыса Крильон, одиноко лежит небольшой каменный остров. Высота его не превышает 8 м, а диаметр всего около 20 м. В разные стороны от него простираются опасные каменистые рифы (см. рис. на с. 96). Остров был открыт и назван Камнем Опасности в 1787 году французской экспедицией на фрегатах “Буссоль” и “Астролябия” под командованием Ж. Лаперуза. Название весьма подходящее, так как, находясь почти посередине пролива Лаперуза, где почти постоянно бывают густые туманы и где переменчивы направление и сила течений, остров представляет собой большую опасность для судов. Само название острова предупреждает мореплавателей: будьте внимательны, впереди опасность! Маяк Камень Опасности Любопытно, что сама природа позаботилась о том, чтобы оградить этот остров. Его голые камни посреди моря всегда привлекали к себе сивучей. Скапливаясь здесь в большом количестве, они производили чрезвычайно сильный крик, который в любую погоду служил морякам предостережением. Однако для надежного плавания этого было недостаточно, и мореплаватели еще в прошлом веке просили гидрографов обозначить это место более приметно. Решить эту задачу было поручено инженеру-строителю подполковнику К. И. Леопольду, возводившему в 1890-х годах маяк на мысе Крильон. Леопольд решил вначале установить на острове знак. Однако все попытки выгрузить на остров со шлюпки материалы закончились неудачей: сивучи не позволили это сделать. Тогда Леопольд осветил опасное место огнем с Крильонского маяка. Но из-за большого расстояния луч света оказался слишком слаб и был мало эффективен. Так и оставался этот остров еще долго неогражденным. Лишь в конце 1930-х годов на скале, полностью заливаемой водой во время шторма, установили башню с ацетиленовым огнем. Он был слаб и так же, как Крильонский маяк, мало помогал мореплавателям. Здесь довольно часто случались кораблекрушения. В 1948 году на рифы Камня Опасности с полного хода наскочило филиппинское судно “Донья Тринидад”, чуть не сбив своим форштевнем башенку маяка. Подошедший на помощь советский буксир “Ингул”
также сел на подводный каменистый риф неподалеку от потерпевшего аварию судна. Затем к Камню Опасности подошел из Владивостока пароход “Иркутск”. Он подобрал людей со шлюпок, снял часть оборудования и механизмов с попавших в беду судов и вернулся во Владивосток. После этого случая вся маячная техника на острове была заменена. В настоящее время маяк Камень Опасности представляет собой белую круглую бетонную башню высотой 18 м с фонарным сооружением, в котором установлен светооптический аппарат, действующий автоматически. Он светит белым проблесковым огнем на расстояние до 13 миль. В автоматическом режиме работает и радиомаяк, смонтированный в башне. Обслуживающий персонал бывает на маяке лишь эпизодически — для профилактического осмотра и ремонта техники.
