Portopí Lighthouse, Maritime lighthouse and watchtower in Portopí, Palma de Mallorca, Spain

The stone structure rises 38 meters high with three balconies and a grey lantern, projecting light visible from 18 nautical miles at sea.

King Jaime II of Mallorca documented the lighthouse in 1300, making it the second oldest lighthouse in Spain and among the oldest operational ones worldwide.

The interior contains a permanent exhibition of maritime signals, presenting one of the largest collections of navigation lighting equipment in Europe.

Visitors can access the lighthouse Monday through Friday from 10:00 to 15:00 and 16:00 to 19:00, with Saturday openings from 10:00 to 15:00.

The lighthouse employs a cathodic reverb system for illumination, standing as the only Spanish lighthouse equipped with this specific lighting technology.
