Farol da Ponta do Sinó is a lighthouse near Ponta do Sinó, the southernmost point of the island of Sal, Cape Verde, about 2 km southwest of Santa Maria. Built in 1892, its quadrangular concrete tower stands 9 metres tall, with an outer staircase, a lantern and an all-white exterior. In early 2013 a second building of the same style was constructed, and it became active when the light moved to its new location.
