Cabo de Palos Lighthouse Guided Tour

On this guided tour of the Cabo de Palos Lighthouse, we will enjoy views from this famous monument and learn about its history while climbing to the top, almost 80 metres (260 feet) above sea level.

Description

At the indicated time, we will meet at the entrance to the Cabo de Palos Lighthouse to begin our ascent to observe the Murcian coast from above.

Constructed in the mid-19th century, the Cabo de Palos Lighthouse replaced the old watch tower and has guided boats along the Costa Calida daily.

This is one of the tallest lighthouses in Spain. During the tour, we will learn about its history and the projects funded for its construction, as well as the significance of the Cabo de Palos Marine Reserve.

After a historical introduction, we will climb more than 300 stairs to reach its balcony, approximately 80 metres (260 feet) above sea level, providing views of the Mediterranean Sea, Cabo de Palos, and La Manga del Mar Menor. Time for photos!

We will also discover how the lighthouse operates and learn about nearby shipwrecks. The guided tour will conclude at the initial meeting point after 45 minutes.
