This beautiful lighthouse was erected on the top of a rocky promontory in the year 1920. In addition to guiding the ships at sea at night, the Alfanzina Lighthouse also allowed local fishermen to catch squids at night because of its artificial light. We advise you to visit the lighthouse during a day of clear sky because of the stunning scenery it provides.
