An interesting and picturesque place is the lighthouse of Punta Pechiguera, a lighthouse that is located in the municipality of Yaiza, in the southern part of the island Lanzarote and which serves as a guide for boats passing through the strait of La Bocayna, which is a maritime passage that separates the islands from Lanzarote and Fuerteventura.
The characteristics of the Faro Pechiguera have the following characteristics: it is of 4º order of fixed white light, it was inaugurated in 1866. It is a building of rectangular plant and is divided in three parts by On one side we find the house of the lighthouse keepers, on the other hand we have the tower and finally the lighthouse has the store.
With regard to the exterior of the building, it has arched windows framed in stonework, and also highlights the ashlar ornaments finished on the cornice of the lighthouse. The same building acts as a shoe to withstand the pushes of the cylindrical tower of basaltic ashlar, being crowned by the machinery of the lamp that emits the light.

The Mill consists of a circular tower built in mud, stone and lime, the interior is distributed on three floors. The first of the plants was dedicated to the storage of tools and grain, the second plant left ground the gofio or flour and the last of the plants that is where the grain was overturned before being ground.
