Cap de Formentor Lighthouse
Lighthouse in Pollenca

The Cap de Formentor Lighthouse is a picturesque beacon perched at an impressive altitude of 384 meters above sea level. It graces the eastern tip of Majorca’s Formentor peninsula, marking the northernmost point of Mallorca. Originally inaugurated in 1863, the Cap de Formentor Lighthouse was established to enhance the safety of nighttime navigation for boats traversing the waters around Mallorca.
Situated in one of the island’s most rugged and remote locations, constructing the Cap de Formentor Lighthouse was indeed a challenging endeavor. However, this very location rewards visitors with spectacular panoramic vistas, making it well worth the effort to reach and behold.
