Basco Lighthouse is a lighthouse in the town of Basco in Batanes, the northernmost province in the Philippines. Located in Naidi Hills in Barangay San Antonio, the lush green hills and the open sea provide a beautiful backdrop for the lighthouse. The place can easily be reached by a 1.2-km (3/4 mile) hike from the Port of Basco. ==History==
Basco Lighthouse is one of the three lighthouses proposed by former Congressman Florencio Abad of Batanes, not only as working lighthouses, but possibly as tourist attractions.〔Alconis, Necitas G. "(Lighthouse in Naidi Hills nearing completion )". Batanes Online. Retrieved on 2010-06-29.〕 The other two are in Sabtang and Mahatao. The Basco structure was the first completed in 2003. The location chosen is where the first lighthouse of Basco was built. It was also the site of the American period telegraph facilities that connected Batanes with the central government until it was destroyed by the Japanese Imperial Army bombings at the start of World War II.〔"(Places to See )". Official Website of the Provincial Government of Batanes. Retrieved on 2010-06-29〕 A few of the buildings survived and some have been converted into businesses like a café - resulting from the area becoming popular because of the lighthouse.〔Claire Algarme (2010-04-28).
