Isla Caja de Muertos Lighthouse
Isla Caja de Muertos Lighthouse, Maritime lighthouse on Caja de Muertos Island, Puerto Rico.
The lighthouse features a cylindrical tower measuring 19 meters high with gray walls and a black lantern, standing at the highest point of the island.
The Spanish colonial government constructed this third-order lighthouse in 1887, with its original lighting apparatus manufactured by Sautter, Lemonnier & Company in 1885.
The structure holds a place on the National Register of Historic Places since 1981, representing an essential component of Puerto Rico's maritime navigation system.
Visitors can reach the lighthouse via ferry service from La Guancha Boardwalk in Ponce, with boats operating regular schedules to the island.
The lighthouse structure follows a distinct T-type shape with a Lorraine cross design, setting it apart from other lighthouses in Puerto Rico.
