Morro Jable Lighthouse, Maritime navigation lighthouse in Morro Jable, Spain

The white cylindrical tower stands 59 meters tall on the southern coast of Fuerteventura, featuring a balcony and lantern at its top section.

The Morro Jable Lighthouse began operating in 1996 as part of the modernization of maritime navigation systems throughout the Canary Islands region.

The lighthouse marks the boundary between the nudist and regular sections of El Matorral Beach, where locals and visitors engage in traditional activities.

The lighthouse beam extends 17 nautical miles into the sea, producing two white flashes every 10 seconds to guide vessels along the coastline.

Located near Jandía Wetland, the lighthouse overlooks the only Ramsar-designated site in the Canary Islands, known for its ecological importance.
