About Isolotto Il Toro Lighthouse
This lighthouse stands on Il Toro, the highest of three small islands located about 10 km south of Capo Sperrone, the southern tip of Isola di Sant'Antioco. A 5-meter white square post light is mounted on a 1-story equipment shelter. The focal height of the light is 118 meters, and it has a geographic range of 26.7 nautical miles. It emits two white or red flashes every 6 seconds, depending on the direction of approach. The nearest port is Calasetta, 2.8 km away.
