Strombolicchio (Stromboli, Scoglio Strombolicchio)

1905. Active; focal plane 58 m (190 ft); three white flashes every 15 s. 13 m (43 ft) cylindrical tower with lantern and gallery, painted white, mounted on a square 1-story stone service building. Trabas has Capt. Peter's photo, and Google has a satellite view. Jimmy Karlsson's photo and Marinas.com's aerial photos show the remarkable situation of the lighthouse. Strombolicchio is a rocky outcrop (a volcanic plug) about 1.5 km (1 mi) northeast of the village of Stromboli, which clings to the northeastern corner of the island of the same name. The volcano of Stromboli is famous for being in almost continuous eruption since the time of the Romans, with no end in sight. In fact, the fire of the volcano is almost as reliable a navigational aid as any lighthouse. Located atop the islet, a location inaccessible to most lighthouse fans, but there are good views from the waterfront of Stromboli and from ferries arriving there. Accessible only by boat. A concrete stairway of over 200 steps reaches the lighthouse, but visits appear hazardous. Site open but dangerous, tower closed. . ARLHS ITA-163; EF-3310; Admiralty E1802; NGA 9844.
