The Armenistis Lighthouse, built in 1891, stands silently as a testament to Mykonos's maritime heritage. Still active, it sits on the northwestern end of the island in the Fanari area, overlooking the vibrant blue waters separating Mykonos from Tinos. Its position provides breathtaking panoramic vistas of the surroundings, making it a must-see attraction for anyone seeking to immerse themselves in Mykonos's captivating past and its captivating present. After the tragic sinking of the British ship Volta in 1887, which claimed 11 lives, authorities recognized the urgent need to prevent similar disasters. In response, the Armenistis Lighthouse was constructed by 1891. Its towering height of 19 meters serves as a guiding light for incoming vessels, ensuring their safe passage and minimizing the risk of future tragedies.
