Parks and Nature | Sant Josep de sa Talaia

The lighthouse of Sa Conillera is located at the highest point of this island, 69 meters above sea level. Its construction was completed in 1857, although the construction has been modified until it reached its current appearance. The lighthouse of the Conejera, name that receives in Castilian, is located on a building of circular form. Here are concentrated the lighthouse keeper's quarters, his assistant, as well as other rooms for the use of the lighthouse. In 1971 a new optic with a range of 18 miles was installed. The new technology made it possible to remove the lighthouse personnel that resided here until then. The presence of the islet and its lighthouse, visible from the entire bay of Portmany, are part of the landscape and the collective memory of all Ibizans.
