Faro de Orchilla is a lighthouse located in the town of Sabinosa, on the island of El Hierro in the Canary Islands. The lighthouse is situated on a rocky promontory overlooking the Atlantic Ocean, and is one of the most important landmarks on the island.
The Faro de Orchilla was built in the early 20th century and has since become a popular tourist attraction. The lighthouse is a tall, white tower with a red lantern room at the top. The tower is surrounded by a small courtyard and a low stone wall, and is accessible via a winding staircase.
From the top of the lighthouse, visitors can enjoy stunning views of the surrounding landscape, including the rugged coastline and the deep blue sea. The area around the lighthouse is also home to a variety of flora and fauna, including seabirds and other marine life.
The Faro de Orchilla is steeped in history and has played an important role in the island's maritime history. It was once used as a navigational aid for ships traveling between Europe and the Americas, and was also used as a weather station and a telegraph station. Today, the lighthouse is a popular destination for tourists and locals alike, who come to enjoy the stunning views and learn about the island's rich history.
