The historical beginnings of the maritime signalling of Grao de Castelló predate the existence of the port itself. The primitive lighthouse, designed in 1864, had a short range, as navigation at height was carried out using the Oropesa and Columbretes lighthouses. It is an octagonal tower made of carved ashlar, it is crowned by a cornice supported by corbels with a small balcony, turret and lantern.

As this lighthouse was too small to cover the coastal area, a new, larger lighthouse was built next to it in 1971 and when the old small lighthouse no longer had any practical use it was moved to a prominent location in the Moll de Costa.
