Delimara Lighthouse, Maritime lighthouse at Delimara Point in Marsaxlokk, Malta.
The Delimara Lighthouse stands 18 meters tall with a white cylindrical tower topped by a red dome, marking the entrance to Malta's southeastern coast.
Built in 1854 by architect Giovanni Maria Camilleri, the lighthouse initially used olive oil lamps before transitioning to a Chance Brothers rotating optic system in 1896.
The lighthouse represents Malta's maritime heritage, guiding vessels through Mediterranean waters while standing as a symbol of British architectural influence on the island.
The lighthouse keeper's former quarters now function as rental accommodations for up to ten guests, offering direct views of the Mediterranean coastline.
The facility combines a historical 19th-century structure with a modern 1990 rectangular tower equipped with radar systems and traffic control capabilities.
