Das Leuchtfeuer Wybelsum ist ein 18 m (60 ft) hoher, roter runder Betonturm mit zwei weißen Bändern. Es steht auf der Binnenseite des Ems-Deichs, auf halbem Weg zwischen Knock und Emden. Über dem Laternengeschoß mit dem Quermarkenfeuer (je nach Richtung weiß oder rot) befindet sich die rotierende Radarantenne. Das Leuchtfeuer wurde 1971 in Betrieb genommen und wird vom Leuchtturm Knock aus ferngesteuert.

The beacon Wybelsum is a 18 m (60 ft) high, red round concrete tower with two white bands. It stands on the inner side of the Ems-dike, halfway between Knock and Emden. Above the lantern floor with the cross-brand light (white or red depending on direction), is the rotating radar antenna. The beacon was put into operation in 1971 and is remotely controlled by the Knock lighthouse.
