About
クイックファクト: A dramatic white tower perches on a windswept headland, its rotating lantern painting rhythmic ribbons of light across the night sea that photographers chase. Climbing the narrow spiral staircase rewards visitors with an intimate lantern room, panoramic sea views, and the tangible roar of surf below.
ハイライト: Climb 213 spiral steps inside the 51-meter tower to a cramped lantern room where a century-old Fresnel lens still rotates, casting a steady white beam out over the Atlantic every 15 seconds. On foggy nights locals tie small red ribbons to the iron railings as a quiet signal to returning boats, the ribbons rasping against rust and smelling sharply of salt and oil while elders point them out with a grin.
Insider tips
- Wear a windproof jacket and comfortable shoes for uneven paths and coastal spray.
- Head for the west-facing rim 30 minutes before sunset for the best panoramic photos of the city and lighthouse silhouette.
- Avoid weekends and mid-day, when local visitors and fishermen increase crowds and block photo spots.
- If short on time, skip the climb and walk the coastal trail for similar views without the steps.
