This Lighthouse of the Week is most peculiar, because the Lighthouse Directory has very little information about it, but websites and pictures and Google Maps call it historic. It certainly has great views, and that's what people visit it for.
It is located on Cantanduanes Island of the Philippines, which is here on the map. I believe the island has been hit pretty hard by a couple of typhoons moving in from the warm Pacific Ocean.
Now, here is all that the Directory has (excluding the photographic information):
"Date unknown. Active; focal plane unknown; two white flashes every 10 s. Approx. 15 m (49 ft) square white concrete tower with a stairway spiraling around the tower. ... Located on heights near the village of Bote and the southeastern tip of Catanduanes. Site open and nothing prevents climbing the tower."
With all that, here are some pictures and a video:
