Lost in the middle of the sand dunes and recognisable thanks to its original square shape and its black colour visible from the sea, the Espiguette lighthouse has been lighting up our coastline and guiding sailors for over 150 years. Let's discover together the history of a unique place with an exceptional natural heritage.
