Faro de Punta Frouxeira, Lighthouse in Meirás, Valdoviño, Spain.

The Punta Frouxeira lighthouse is a square-plan tower 38 m tall, painted blue and white in the colours of the Ferrol port authority. It stands at Meirás, in Valdoviño, at the foot of the beaches of Os Botes and A Frouxeira and beside the A Frouxeira lagoon. Its lantern sits 94 m above the sea and its light reaches 21 nautical miles.

This facility was built in 1992 and represents the modern approach to maritime safety on the Galician coast. Its construction shows Spain's ongoing investment in improving navigation infrastructure in the Atlantic waters.

The lighthouse is painted blue and white, the corporate colours of the Port Authority of Ferrol, which completed the optics and equipment. Its five flashes every 15 seconds come from a rotating optic with seven panels, five Fresnel lenses and two blank sectors for the long eclipse.

The structure is reachable by following the coastal road from Valdovino, with parking available near the site for convenient access. The location offers good views of the surrounding coastline and Atlantic waters.

In 2012 it became Spain's first long-range lighthouse, with a reach of 20 nautical miles or more, to be fitted with LED technology, which allowed the diesel generator sets to be removed. Its optic has seven panels: five Fresnel lenses produce the flashes and two blank sectors create the long eclipse.
