    The Marbella Lighthouse is a maritime beacon for those arriving at the port. The Marbella lighthouse project was approved in 1861. The reasons were based on the existence of a busy anchorage. The slightly truncated conical brown tower is attached to the guardhouse. The tourism impulse of the area meant that the lighthouse was practically within the built environment, creating confusion between the light and that of the houses. In 1974 the lighthouse was replaced by another of a larger size. Surrounded by gardens and close to the promenade and beach, the lighthouse is now preserved as a tourist attraction.
