Lighthouse of La Coubre, lighthouse built 1892 in Charente-Maritime, France
The Lighthouse of La Coubre is a lighthouse located on the coast of Charente-Maritime in France. It features a distinctive white and red striped tower that stands on a rocky point jutting into the Atlantic Ocean.
This lighthouse was built in the 19th century to warn ships of the rocky coastline and treacherous waters of this area. The structure has been maintained and updated over the decades while continuing to serve maritime navigation.
The site sits on a rocky headland along the Atlantic coast and is best explored at low tide. Visitors should wear sturdy footwear and watch the tides, especially if planning to walk close to the rocks and water.
