\"\"En pleno paseo mar\u00edtimo de Sant Antoni, casi a la altura del dique de abrigo del puerto, donde arranca la costa de Ses Variades, aguarda el faro de Ses Coves Blanques, la primera luminaria construida para se\u00f1alar el puerto de Sant Antoni. Aunque hoy se encuentra rodeado de edificios mucho m\u00e1s altos, que hacen que su presencia pase m\u00e1s desapercibida que anta\u00f1o, se trata de uno de los monumentos m\u00e1s importantes de la localidad.<\/p>\n

La bah\u00eda de Portmany fue declarada Puerto de Inter\u00e9s General de Segundo Orden en 1885. Seis a\u00f1os m\u00e1s tarde, tras la celebraci\u00f3n de un pleno, el Ayuntamiento de Sant Antoni solicit\u00f3 su construcci\u00f3n al Estado, ya que varios navegantes alertaran de la peligrosidad que implicaba la alcanzar la ensenada sin se\u00f1alizaci\u00f3n alguna. Adem\u00e1s, ya se hab\u00eda producido alg\u00fan naufragio, a pesar de que el faro de Sa Conillera estaba operativo desde 1857.<\/p>\n

La redacci\u00f3n del proyecto corri\u00f3 a cargo del ingeniero Eusebi Estada, impulsor del ferrocarril en Mallorca, y de su construcci\u00f3n se ocup\u00f3 el maestro de obras Joan Bonet. Se construy\u00f3 en un paraje entonces solitario y alejado de la poblaci\u00f3n, y se inaugur\u00f3 en 1897. Cost\u00f3 poco m\u00e1s de 30.000 pesetas y comenz\u00f3 emitiendo una luz roja fija, visible desde cinco millas.<\/p>\n

Al estar situado tan cerca del n\u00facleo urbano, fue catalogado como faro de descanso. Se califican as\u00ed aquellos cuyos equipos no suponen una gran dificultad de manejo, con una torre de poca altura y cercano a una poblaci\u00f3n con servicios sanitarios y religiosos. Por esta raz\u00f3n, solo acced\u00edan a \u00e9l los torreros mayores de 50 a\u00f1os, que adem\u00e1s acreditaran padecer alguna dificultad o impedimento f\u00edsico que dificultara el trabajo en faros ordinarios.<\/p>\n

En 1902, su luz pas\u00f3 de roja a blanca, lo que provoc\u00f3 que, en 1914, la gente del pueblo solicitara su sustituci\u00f3n. La localidad hab\u00eda comenzado a crecer y su luz, a lo lejos, se confund\u00eda con las de otras casas. Tardaron doce a\u00f1os en cambiarla y entonces inici\u00f3 un periodo de intermitencias blancas. En 1956 el Estado volvi\u00f3 a invertir en \u00e9l para automatizarlo, pero la reconversi\u00f3n del puerto puso fin a sus d\u00edas. Con la construcci\u00f3n del dique y la instalaci\u00f3n en su extremo de la baliza que a\u00fan se\u00f1ala la entrada a la bah\u00eda, fue apagado definitivamente. Ocurri\u00f3 en 1963. Se le retir\u00f3 la linterna y dej\u00f3 de prestar servicio como se\u00f1al mar\u00edtima, aunque sus viviendas siguieron proporcionando alojamiento, hasta ya entrado el siglo XXI, a los t\u00e9cnicos de mantenimiento de se\u00f1ales mar\u00edtimas destinados en la zona, que se ocupaban de las balizas de es Vedr\u00e0, Bleda Plana y Punta Xinx\u00f3, as\u00ed como del faro de sa Conillera.<\/p>\n

La Autoridad Portuaria de Balears cedi\u00f3 el viejo faro de ses Coves Blanques al Ayuntamiento de Sant Antoni en 2006. Tras ser restaurado, en 2010 abri\u00f3 como Centro de Interpretaci\u00f3n del Mar, espacio socio-cultural y sala de exposiciones. Sin embargo, se encontraba incompleto, ya que faltaba la c\u00fapula de cristal que corona su torre. Pocos a\u00f1os, despu\u00e9s, \u00e9sta apareci\u00f3 desmontada en un gallinero. El consistorio pudo recuperarla, reconstruirla y volver a instalarla en 2014.<\/p>\n
