Unlike the towering landmarks elsewhere on the <strong>Costa da Morte<\/strong>, its appeal lies in its small scale and its quiet setting beside the Camari\u00f1as estuary.<\/p>\n<p>Standing on a rocky headland, the lighthouse is a freestanding cylindrical tower built in granite masonry with a whitewashed finish. It has long served as a coastal navigation mark and still fulfils that purpose. The Galician regional government includes it in its catalogue of coastal cultural heritage, recognising the value of even the smallest maritime landmarks.<\/p>\n<p>The surrounding shoreline brings together sandy beaches, granite rocks and views towards the mouth of the River Grande. Nearby <strong>Leis Beach<\/strong>, one of Mux\u00eda&#8217;s northernmost beaches, is a lovely place to enjoy the changing tides and light of this sheltered stretch of coast.<\/p>\n<p>Visit the <strong>Punta do Lago<\/strong> area wearing suitable footwear and take care on slippery or exposed rocks.
