About Punta Lava Lighthouse
Punta Lava Lighthouse (Spanish: Faro de Punta Lava) is an active 20th century Spanish lighthouse on the Canary island of La Palma. It is located in the municipality of Tazacorte, near the village of La Bombilla on the western side of the island. The larger settlement of Puerto Naos lies 2 kilometres to the south-west.
It is one of four main lighthouses on La Palma, each one marking a different cardinal point of the island. The modern lighthouses of Punta Lava and Arenas Blancas are located on the western and eastern sides of the island. The older lighthouses at Punta Cumplida and Fuencaliente are situated at the northern and southern points respectively.
