Located at the southernmost point of the Balearic Islands, the Barbària lighthouse is one of the most emblematic points on the island of Formentera surrounded by an arid-looking landscape with little vegetation, but with incredible views of the sea. It is an ideal place to enjoy the impressive sunsets over the Mediterranean.

The road that leads to the lighthouse, from the town of Sant Francesc de Formentera, is paved, although it is a narrow passage. Near the lighthouse, the old defense tower Des Garroveret also stands out.

It is one of the two best-known lighthouses on the island of Formentera and located at the southernmost tip of the island and also of the Balearic Islands as a whole. The road that leads there goes in a straight line that crosses a set of lands with low vegetation and where at the end, you reach the white lighthouse that predominates above the cliffs.
