Gateway to the Bayona estuary and offers wonderful views of the Cíes Islands. The Silleiro Lighthouse, characterized by its aesthetics of white and red stripes, is one of the most emblematic points of this beautiful place.
This lighthouse in a unique enclave and with recommendable sunsets will surely captivate you for its aesthetics. In front of the gray of the rocky mount of Baredo emerges the red-and-white lighthouse of Silleiro, which was first built with white walls to be easily located from the sea, but in 1929 it was covered with tiles.
From the center of Baiona there is a road that leads to Baredo and 5 km away is the detour that leads to the viewpoint. Accessibility: nearby by car, by bus or on foot. The Silleiro lighthouse is considered an emblem for navigation but it was also an important help for aviation.
In 1955 an important technological advance was installed that increased its radius of action, allowing it to be identified by planes at a distance of 20 kilometers. Currently, it has a range of 30 miles and is automated.
