The Armenistis Lighthouse is at the northern and western part of the island above the homonymous cape. Access is easy with asphalt and at the end a very passable dirt road and walking for about 100 meters. The construction of the lighthouse was decided when an English ship was wrecked in the north of the island and lost 11 members of the crew.
The lighthouse was built in 1891. It has a tower of 19 meters and focal height 184 meters. The house next to the lighthouse has several rooms which housed the current lighthouse keepers and often their families. The original mechanism of the lighthouse was of French origin and won the international exhibition in Paris. After the war - 1945 - it worked with petrol until 1982 when it was electrified. Today it is fully automated and the original mechanism is housed in the Aegean Maritime Museum located at the Three Pigadia in Mykonos Town.
The site has wild beauty and offers panoramic views of Tinos, the Aegean Sea and a beautiful sunset in the afternoon.

"We wish we had more time here. It had everything we wanted in a Greek Island property. Breath taking views, private pool and shared pool, very comfortable room, clean and more. And, very close to Little Venice, which we loved. We found where we want to be when we return to the island."

"We loved our stay here! Our room was clean, comfortable and really cool, the pool was beautiful and super fun to hang at, and the staff was really great and friendly (shout out to Akis behind the bar!). Paradise Beach is an easy walk away, as are a handful of other great establishments, whether you're looking to eat, party, or both."
