Description

Discover the Guardians of the Sea: An unforgettable exhibition about lighthouses. With their majestic structures and lights that break through the darkness of coastal nights, lighthouses are much more than guides for navigators - they are true symbols of safety and adventure. Each one holds stories of courage, challenges and resilience, bearing witness to centuries of navigation and lives saved. In this exhibition, the result of a partnership between the Directorate of Lighthouses and the Pedra do Sal Environmental Interpretation Centre, you will be transported into the fascinating universe of these maritime monuments. Explore the history, the science and the connection to the environmental preservation of coastal regions.
