Phare du cap Camarat, Maritime beacon in Ramatuelle, France

The Cap Camarat lighthouse stands 130 meters above the Mediterranean Sea, making it the second highest lighthouse structure in France.

Constructed in 1838, the lighthouse switched from oil to electrical power in 1946, marking a significant advancement in maritime navigation technology.

The name Camarat derives from a fourteenth-century manor, reflecting the deep connection between the lighthouse and regional maritime heritage.

The lighthouse emits four white light signals every 15 seconds, guiding ships across a distance of 60 kilometers in the Mediterranean waters.

Since 1977, operators control this maritime beacon remotely from the Porquerolles island lighthouse, demonstrating modern navigation management.
