Matamoros Lighthouse
Matamoros Lighthouse is a defunct lighthouse in Centro, Puerto Vallarta, in the Mexican state of Jalisco.[1] The structure was built by Roberto Alcazar and inaugurated on August 15, 1932. It operated until June 1978; upon retirement, the lighthouse was deemed a historic landmark.[2]
In 2006, the structure was remodeled and converted into a lookout with stair access. The structure, now considered a tourist attraction,[3] provides panoramic views of the city and Banderas Bay.[4] It was cleaned and graffiti was removed in 2017.[5]
