Capo Circeo Lighthouse, Coastal lighthouse in San Felice Circeo, Italy

The cylindrical white tower of Capo Circeo Lighthouse extends 18 meters high with a grey metallic lantern dome at its summit near the Tyrrhenian Sea.

The lighthouse stands within Circeo National Park, connecting maritime navigation requirements with the natural heritage of the Lazio coastline.

The light signal flashes white every 5 seconds and reaches 23 nautical miles across the sea, operating through a system powered by mains electricity.
