Faro de Cabo San Agustín

The Faro de Cabo San Agustín is a lighthouse on the Asturian coast near Coaña and sits on a headland overlooking the estuary. The facility consists of a tower with lighting equipment that helps guide vessels through this coastal area.

The current lighthouse was built in 1973 at the same location as a previous marker. The site has long served as an important navigation point for ships along this coast.

The structure stands as a landmark of the Asturian coast and shapes how people view this stretch of shoreline. For those who live nearby, it represents the lasting connection between their communities and the sea.

Visitors can explore the area around the lighthouse and enjoy views of the coast and sea. It is best to visit during daylight hours to see the landscape and estuary clearly.

The location sits where the river meets the sea and two different navigation routes converge. Seeing this transition point between estuary and open water gives the place a distinctive geographical character.
