About

Quick facts: The lighthouse stands 50 meters tall with a powerful light visible up to 40 kilometers out at sea. It has guided countless ships along Fuerteventura's coastline since the 19th century.

Highlights: The lighthouse flashes every 5 seconds with a unique triple-blink pattern, a feature that helps sailors distinguish it from others along the Canary Islands. Superb cliffside views reveal the rugged Atlantic coast, framed by striking volcanic rock formations and crashing waves.

Insider tips

  • Wear sturdy shoes as surrounding paths can be rocky and uneven.
  • Capture the lighthouse against sunset for stunning contrast between light and sea.
  • Avoid midday to skip the strongest sun and crowds often found in early afternoon.
  • Bring a light jacket, as coastal winds can be brisk even on warmer days.
