Faro del Toston Museum El Cotillo

[windermeregolfer]

We were at the Faro del Toston (El Cotillo Lighthouse) yesterday and the museum was open but not the cafe / coffee shop which is a great shame. 

I can't see why the lady sat there to to take the museum entry Money & twiddling her thumbs couldn't be trained to use the coffee machine and have a few packet of biscuits for sale   and help make a bit more Money.

You were lucky John we were there on Tuesday afternoon and it was closed completely.

There yesterday with friends and spotted a new sign re building stone towers -

I do not understand why people do this, 3/4 tears ago there were a lot of them along the road between The Costa Antigua roundabout and Antigua, and there was a bit of a hoo-ha about it then most of them have now collapsed but some remain, I repeat why on earth would you do something like that? if you need to construct something buy some Lego.

Agree. If I remember correctly Pajara recently introduced a local ordinance that prohibs building stone towers, building stone shelters on the beach, or moving any stones around. Subject to enforcement with a fine.

We haven't been to the lighthouse for a while and saw this new (to us) sign for the first time yesterday.
