Question: Where in Florida is the Faro Blanco Resort Faux Lighthouse?

Answer: Marathon in the Florida Keys

The Faro Blanco Resort Faux Lighthouse is a 50-foot-tall concrete lighthouse in Marathon in the Florida Keys, built by a marina in the 1950s. It remains an active private aid to navigation with a rotating aerobeacon. The name is Spanish for “white lighthouse.” The tower is clearly visible on the marina dock, but it is not normally open for climbing.
