Southern Corners 13 - Lighthouse of Cavalleria

.

Lighthouse of Cavalleria

The northernmost of the lighthouses of Menorca was inaugurated in 1857 to reduce more than 700 ship accidents that had happened on its shores since the fourteenth century. The white tower is located more than 90 meters above sea level, that’s why this lighthouse is surrounded by spectacular cliffs and is an excellent spot to enjoy the best panoramas of the entire north coast.

It is the only one that has an interpretation center. Without a doubt, the best part is its incredible sunsets, which have become very fashionable lately. We visit this wonderful place in the preseason in May 2018 and as you see, there are only a few people enjoying the spectacular scenery.

A Thrill of pleasure ...

.

Through primrose tufts, in that green bower,

The periwinkle trailed its wreaths;

And ’tis my faith that every flower

Enjoys the air it breathes.

The birds around me hopped and played,

Their thoughts I cannot measure:—

But the least motion which they made

It seemed a thrill of pleasure…

William Wordsworth, ‘Lines Written in Early Spring‘

Spring is in full bloom at my cottage garden and at every corner little wonders pop up. I feel really blessed to have my own garden to enjoy springtime during is hard times of pandemic fear and social distancing.
