About Isla Ángel de la Guarda Punta Norte Lighthouse
This square pyramidal skeletal metal tower stands 14 meters tall, with a gallery at its top. Its white and red exterior contrasts with the surrounding waters. The lighthouse emits a white flash every 6 seconds, visible for 14.1 nautical miles. The structure's focal height reaches 24 meters above sea level. Located near the eastern edge of Isla Granito, it serves mariners in the northern part of the Gulf of California. The site is accessible by boat and open to visitors, though the tower itself is closed.
Why it matters: This light marks Isla Granito and warns vessels navigating the northern reaches of Isla Ángel de la Guarda, a significant passage in the Gulf of California.
