History

Punta Nariga lighthouse is situated on Barizo, council of Malpica de Bergantiños. It is the most recent lighthouse of the coast, it came into operation in 1998, it symbolises a stone ship that challenges the sea. The shape of the ship is successful due to its three different parts. Its triangular base recreates the bow that faces the sea and seems to be going to break the waves any minute.
