Fyrtårnet blev bygget i 1886 for at vise fiskere den sikre rute til Miño-flodmundingen.
Lyset stiger op over en bastion fra det 17. århundrede , der også husede et franciskanerkloster , en ekstremt sjælden kombination i Portugal (det eneste andet eksempel er Berlengues-fæstningen).
Den originale lampe (1886) var en hvid olielampe monteret på en jernramme . Det nuværende metaltårn blev bygget i 1947 og ombygget til solenergi i 1995.
Den har en naturlig ferskvandskilde , en af kun tre i verden, der ligger i et maritimt fort. Brønden var i lang tid beboet af munke og senere af fyrvogtere.
