Built in 1937, octagonal in shape, 24 meters high, behind it a sort of pebble beach and a beautiful sea where you can relax or dive

Another wonderful day in Abruzzo: just below the Aragonese Castle, to signal the ridge of rock that supports it to the sailors, is the Ortona lighthouse.
The cycle / pedestrian path that runs along the sea has recently been completed and allows you to get (for now) up to just before the promontory of Ripari di Giobbe.
PS: This lighthouse reminds me of those on the coasts of Northern Europe.
