Portugal Capelinhos Lighthouse

Please log in or sign up for free to see the GPS coordinates & weather for this photo spot

This lighthouse is in Faial Island, Azores, Portugal. In 1957, it was hit very badly, during the vulcanic eruption and it's been disabled since then.
It's now a turistic attraction and beneath is the Vulcanic Interpretation Centre. The vulcano is right next to it and it's possible to walk in the trails available.

Photography Tips

The lighthouse always looks good, in all angles. The best pictures are during sunrise and sunset.
