Punta Moscarter Lighthouse, Maritime lighthouse on northern coast of Ibiza, Spain

The cylindrical concrete tower rises 52 meters high with black and white spiral patterns painted on its exterior surface and a grey lantern at the top.

The construction of Punta Moscarter Lighthouse began in 1975 and required three years to complete before starting operations in November 1978.

This structure marks the northernmost point of Ibiza island and serves as a vital navigation aid for maritime traffic in the Mediterranean Sea.

The lighthouse emits a white flash every five seconds from its focal height of 93 meters, reaching vessels within an 18 nautical mile radius.

The tallest lighthouse in the Balearic Islands features a modern automated system, eliminating the need for traditional keeper quarters or support buildings.
