Lighthouse and cliffs on Cape Lefkadas, the most Southern point of the Island.

This lighthouse was manufactured in 1861. The lighthouse is built on one corner of the 14th century Byzantine fortress of Santa Maura, which is otherwise in ruins.

Lefkada is a Greek island in the Ionian Sea on the west coast of Greece, connected to the mainland by a long causeway and floating bridge.
