Matamoros Lighthouse

Matamoros Lighthouse, also known as Faro de Matamoros, stands on Matamoros Street in colonia Centro, Puerto Vallarta, Jalisco. Built by Roberto Alcazar and inaugurated on August 15, 1932, it served as a coastal beacon until June 1978. After its retirement, the structure gained recognition as a historic landmark. In 2006 it was remodeled and converted into a lookout reached by stairs, giving visitors panoramic views of the city and Banderas Bay. Cleaning and graffiti removal in 2017 reflected continued care for a site valued both for its history and for its vantage point over Puerto Vallarta.
