Description

[edit | edit source]

The lighthouse was built in 1868 and consists of a white octagonal prism tower, 18 metres (59 ft) high, with balcony and lantern, rising from a 2-storey white keeper's house. The lantern, painted in grey metallic, is positioned at 20 metres (66 ft) above sea level and emits one white flash in a 5 seconds period, visible up to a distance of 23 nautical miles (43 km; 26 mi). The lighthouse is completely automated and is managed by the Marina Militare with the identification code number 3796 E.F.[2]
