Punta Fenaio lighthouse, Maritime beacon at northern tip of Giglio Island, Italy

The white stone lighthouse rises 10 meters above sea level, featuring a cylindrical tower with a black lantern room at its summit.

The Italian Maritime Authority commissioned the construction of Punta Fenaio lighthouse in 1883 to guide ships through the Tuscan Archipelago waters.

The lighthouse facilities now include a resort where guests experience maritime heritage while staying in renovated keeper quarters.

Visitors can reach the lighthouse through a one-kilometer hiking trail starting from Vaccarecce, requiring approximately thirty minutes of walking time.

The structure stands on a clifftop offering direct views of Montecristo Island, Elba Island, and the Etruscan coast across the Mediterranean waters.
