Puerto Ferro Light, Maritime lighthouse in Vieques, Puerto Rico.

The white stone lighthouse rises above the southern coast of Vieques Island, featuring a cylindrical tower and elevated keeper's quarters.

The Spanish colonial administration constructed the Puerto Ferro Light in 1896, marking one of the final lighthouses built before the Spanish-American War.

The lighthouse stands as an example of Spanish colonial maritime architecture alongside twelve other historical lighthouse structures throughout Puerto Rico.

Visitors can reach the lighthouse site by following Calle Morropo in Isabel II, although the internal structure remains closed to public access.

The lighthouse retains its original architectural elements from 1896, including the cast iron spiral staircase and classical Mediterranean design features.
