Lighthouse Square : info and guided tour

Introduction to Lighthouse Square

Lighthouse Square is one of the best-known squares in Alexandroúpoli, by the sea, right next to the lighthouse that gave it its name. Located in the heart of the seaside promenade, it serves as a landmark for both locals and visitors and offers direct access to the city’s waterfront.

The area is appreciated for its open urban setting, shaped by the promenade axis, pedestrian areas, and unobstructed views of the Thracian Sea. The square owes much of its reputation to its position opposite the lighthouse, which has become a symbol of Alexandroúpoli and a defining feature of the coastal landscape.

Around the square, the atmosphere blends everyday life, leisurely walks, and tourist stops, with a strong identity linked to the seafront. The whole area is especially popular for its views over the coast and for the central role it plays in discovering the maritime heart of the city.
