This lighthouse is located in the Mundina cove, in the Sierra de Irta natural park. It was designed by Rita Loritem making it one of only two lighthouses in Spain, together with the Nules lighthouse, to have been entirely designed by women. It has an innovative design, and its extreme whiteness contrasts with the green of the landscape and the blue of the Mediterranean Sea.
