THE BEAUTY OF
One of the few historical lighthouses in the country built in the late 1800’s and remaining standing today is the Faro de Punta Capones, or more commonly known as Capones Island Lighthouse, located on Capones Island off the coast of Brgy. Pundaquit, San Antonio, Zambales. As a guide to ships entering and leaving Subic Bay, as well as warning passing vessels of dangerous rocks around the island, it has always served as a guide to those ships passing by.
It was the lighthouse that was the only structure that was renovated and improved with solar power, and though the keeper’s house had been left to age and deteriorate, it became a fantastic photographic location that gave out an eerie-vibe, with the once-painted walls peeling off, the bricks falling down as nature slowly engulfed it, and a feeling of isolation and abandonment that surrounded them.
