One of the most powerful lighthouses in the Mediterranean! Built in 1830, it rises 84 metres above sea level and its white light has a range of 54 km. It was saved from destruction in 1944 thanks to the courage of its keeper at the time, Joseph Pellegrino.

The lighthouse and its enclosure are closed to the public.

Reminder: from June 19 to September 20, access to forest areas at risk of fire is regulated in the Var. For further information,
