Faro Monumental de Huasco, Maritime lighthouse in Huasco, Chile
The Faro Monumental de Huasco stands at 22 meters high with a focal height of 25 meters along the Pacific coastline of northern Chile.
Inaugurated in 1996, this lighthouse replaced earlier navigation aids that had guided vessels through the waters of the Huasco region since the mid-20th century.
