The Serreta Lighthouse stands on a cliff at Ponta do Queimado, in the parish of Serreta on the northwest coast of Terceira Island in the Azores, Portugal. Established in 1908, it is the most recent of four lighthouses on the site. Its current 14-metre white fibreglass tower, with red horizontal bars, carries a fifth-order optical device and is powered by solar energy. It lies within the Nature Park of Terceira.
