Phare de Porquerolles, Historical lighthouse on Porquerolles Island, France.

The Porquerolles lighthouse, also called Phare du cap d'Arme, stands at the southern tip of the island. It consists of a square stone base building with a dark tiled hipped roof and a taller square tower of pale beige stone laid in horizontal courses. The tower has small rectangular windows and is topped by a gallery deck with metal railing and a glass lantern room with dark metal framing and a domed cap with finial. The tower is 20.6 m high, and the light stands 84.6 m above sea level.

Built in 1823 to assist maritime navigation along the Provençal coast, the lighthouse was established during a period of expanding seaborne trade. Its keeper during World War II helped preserve the structure through a critical period when coastal fortifications faced significant threats.

The name Cap d'Arme comes from the Provençal cap d'arma, the armed cape, and the lighthouse stands at the island's southernmost point. From the gallery the view takes in the Langoustier hills, Fort Sainte-Agathe, the semaphore and the southern cliffs, with the Hyères roadstead and the Maures massif beyond. The light shows two flashes every ten seconds.

The tower stands at the southern tip of Porquerolles, reached on foot from the village by the island's paths. The light rises 84.6 m above sea level and shows two flashes every 10 s, so it is best seen after dark. The lantern and interior are not open to visitors.

The light's present character dates from 20 February 1906, when a Fresnel lens with a 700 mm focal length was installed; it gives two flashes every ten seconds. The tower was automated in 1971. The lantern's nominal range is 29 nautical miles, about 54 km, from a focal height of 84.6 m above sea level.
