Faro del Pescador, Maritime lighthouse in Santoña, Spain

The Faro del Pescador lighthouse stands on the Cantabrian coastline, marking the entrance to the Bay of Santoña with its distinct architectural features.

Built in 1864, this lighthouse has guided vessels through the waters of the Bay of Biscay, supporting the maritime trade and fishing activities of the region.

The lighthouse represents the strong maritime traditions of Santoña, a town known for its fishing industry and particularly for its high-quality anchovy production.

Located on Monte Buciero, the lighthouse can be reached through hiking trails that connect various historical fortifications and natural viewpoints along the coast.

From its position on the cliffs, the lighthouse provides views of both the Cantabrian Sea and the wetlands of the Marismas Nature Reserve.
