This lighthouse, situated on a majestic promontory overlooking the sea, watches over the entrance to the Bay of Mont-Saint-Michel and Saint-Malo.

To see it up close, you have to climb up to Cap Lihou, an Anglo-Saxon term which means a promontory dominating the sea, it couldn’t be more explicit. If the lighthouse is not very high, 16 meters, it dominates the sea of 52 meters. Its granite tower from Chausey was built in 1827 and it has been electrified since 1924. The lighthouse, radio-controlled from Chausey, beacons the entrance to the bay of Mont-Saint-Michel and Saint-Malo on a range of 43 meters. The building, which can only be visited during the Heritage Days, is listed as a Historic Monument.

Très beau phare fait en grosse pierre. Il est sur la pointe de la haute ville, il est écrit en grosse lettre GRANVILLE. il éclaire les bateaux pour l'entrée du port et le début de la côte. Le phare ne se visite pas mais une ballade est à faire tout autour si vous le souhaitez. Vous ne pourrez pas non plus aller au pied du phare car c'est un terrain militaire.
