This lighthouse is located on a rocky headland several miles east southeast of Malmok, near the northern tip of the island. The lighthouse was build in 1906 and rebuild after being heavily damaged by fire following a lightning strike in 1954. In 1999 the tower is renamed for Ricardo Winkler, the keeper who lost his life in the fire. It is a active lighthous, 10 meters high an flaches every 22s four times a white flashes. A small service building(34 ft)is attached to the lighthouse.
