18 Rue du Phare, 97441 Sainte-Suzanne, France

La Réunion

The lighthouse is built at the tip of Bel Air in Sainte-Suzanne, on a natural promontory facing the reefs of Marianne and Cousin, the only notable rocks on the north coast of the island. The structure consists of the lighthouse tower flanking, to the north, the quadrangular service building. A kitchen is built on the edge of the land, to the west. The land is closed by a fence, east and west. All the buildings are made of masonry from coated rubble stone; The base, corner chains, astragalus, and walkway are made of cut stone. The service building is covered with reinforced concrete; the kitchen made of corrugated iron; the lighthouse lantern made of flat metal sheets. The lighthouse tower is built in the form of a truncated conical column, of Tuscan order, with astragalus and dodecagonal cutting used as a walkway. Access to the lantern is via a spiral staircase once made of wood, now metal. The lantern currently in place is an old oil and petroleum lantern that has been electrified. The service building was expanded by adding two rooms to the east. In the courtyard, where old annex buildings adjoining the service building have been demolished, stands the old kitchen. The Bel Air lighthouse is the only structure of this type still standing on Réunion.
