Capo d'Orso Lighthouse

Highlight • Monument

Various unmarked paths lead to the Faro Capo d'Orso lighthouse, where you can endure a strong westerly wind. You are opposite the island of Santo Stefano, where the Americans were stationed with a submarine base until the Obama administration.

Again departure from Palau, this time following the quay of the port for a while and then taking the climb. After a couple of kilometers you reach the Training Logistics Base of Palau, a sort of tourist village reserved …

I don't even know where to start; the lighthouse cannot be reached from either side - both paths are officially closed or are private property! Nothing was right on this tour - so be careful and keep your hands off!
