Photographer’s Note

Cantado em versa e prosa pelo poeta Vinícius de Moraes, foi alicerçado sobre a pedra de Piraboca na praia de Itapuã.
O farol tem uma altura de 21 metros, para orientar os navegantes sobre os recifes e bancos de areia na região.
Foi contruído em 1873, e hoje tem um sistema eclipsor, que emite sinais intercalados de alerta aos navegantes.
Quando fiz esta visita, em 2008, estava em manutenção, e a pintura havia sido jateada para a reforma

Celebrated in verse and prose by poet Vinicius de Moraes, was founded on the stone beach of Piraboca in Itapuã.
The lighthouse has a height of 21 meters, to guide sailors on reefs and shoals in the region.
Was built in 1873, and today has a Eclipsor system, which sends signals interspersed warning to mariners.
When I visited, in 2008, was in maintenance, and painting was been blasted for restauration
