Cape Horn Lighthouse, Lighthouse at Cape Horn, Tierra del Fuego, Chile
The lighthouse stands at the meeting point of the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, marking the southern edge of the Tierra del Fuego archipelago.
Built to guide maritime traffic, this lighthouse has assisted countless vessels navigating through the challenging waters since the early days of global sea trade.
The Chilean Navy maintains the lighthouse compound, where a dedicated family lives year-round to operate the facility and welcome international visitors.
Visitors can reach the lighthouse during expedition cruises between Ushuaia and Punta Arenas, with access dependent on weather conditions and sea state.
The lighthouse complex includes a small chapel, a monument featuring an albatross sculpture, and wooden walkways across the island's peat-bog terrain.
