The Cape Cee Lighthouse (built in 1860) stands on a hundred square metre house with a hipped roof. The six-metre high octagonal lighthouse tower is built on the southern wall of the house, and is topped with a balcony that houses an open-air lantern. This lantern illuminates the coastline of Corcubión Cove, of especial use during storms when the fog which rolls in dims the beam from the Fisterra Lighthouse.
