Monday 16th November and we drove the 7 kilometres from the town of Playatis to visit this Lighthouse. Although a surfaced road it was narrow, rather steep as it winded it's way up to the top of the cliff, 196 metres above sea level. It did feel a bit precarious at times. We did enjoy some stunning scenery as we wound our way along. Nothing prepared us for our sheer amazement as we turned the final corner to see this stunning structure in front of us. The building consists of 3 linked towers, with the largest in the centre with the light on its top. It is still operational and not open to the public. Visitors can park up in the spaces walk up close to the Lighthouse to have a look and take photographs. It was built in a Moorish style with brown/orange coloured stone and whitewashed cement. It was completed in 1955 and it is the 3rd highest lighthouse in the Canaries. There is also a small viewing platform, Mirador de la Entallada, that visitors can walk out on to the edge of and enjoy the incredible views. Before we set out to visit here, we were not expecting such an enjoyable experience as we had, including the drive up and back down. Fuerteventura does not seem to stop impressing us as it reveals its treasures to us.
