Punta del Hidalgo Lighthouse

The lighthouse features an angular design with irregular white concrete columns rising from a triangular base to a height of 50 meters.

Constructed in 1992 and operational since 1994, this lighthouse emerged from a 1980s maritime lighting plan to enhance navigation in the Canary Islands.

The structure represents modern Spanish maritime architecture through its geometric forms and white concrete elements against the northeastern coast of Tenerife.

The lighthouse emits two white flashes every seven seconds, guiding vessels with visibility reaching 16 nautical miles across the Atlantic waters.

Architect Ramiro Rodríguez-Borlado Olavarrieta designed this lighthouse with ascending columns that culminate in a square pillar facing the ocean.
