It takes a while to get there. The lighthouse itself is nice. You can't walk up in the lighthouse and viewpoints from the base are limited. But on your Bolinao Peninsula Tour it should be included.

No longer in operation but super cool to get a tour of this place. Can't go inside but a cool area nonetheless.

It is still there, but no one is maintaining it anymore. The view is still spectacular. There are beaches near the lighthouse where you can stay too.

Our first stop on our first visit to Bolinao, Pangasinan is the famous lighthouse, Cape Bolinao Lighthouse.
CAPE Bolinao Lighthouse
Fact: This was the 2nd tallest LIGHTHOUSE in the Philippines built in 1905 by the unity of Filipino, American and British engineers. It was 351 feet above sea level. The lighthouse provides a panoramic view of the South China Sea.
To get there, Manong tricycle driver who brought us to Bing's Beach Resort on our first night in Bolinao offered to tour us on Patar the next day for just 350 pesos. Our 350 pesos already toured us in all the famous tourist spots in Bolinao. I will elaborate on my Itinerary post for Bolinao Pangasinan.
It took us about 10-15 mins to get to our first destination.
We were amazed that the roads going to our destination, from a faraway province like Bolinao would actually look better than some roads in Manila. Paved roads in the middle of farms, grassland, trees, thumbs up for Bolinao's local government 👍.
So why is CAPE Bolinao Lighthouse popular to the guests of Bolinao? Well as per experience, it is the breathtaking views you'll fall in love with. It is like love at first sight.

We have the whole ocean for us ❤
There is also an old and unused headquarters where you can take a rest and enjoy the warm wind kissing your skin. 🏢
This is one historic site you should see when you visit Bolinao as this is a century-old built. And wouldn't it be nice to know and see a structure older than your grannies?

Do the souvenir shops nearby have models of the lighthouse? Specifically, I am looking for model height of 7 to 10 inches. (25 cm) maximum.

I didn’t see any lighthouse models in Bolinao. You can try in Ilocos if you want. We have windmill model sold by the locals. Maybe they also carve lighthouse there.

If you're coming from Manila, Victory Liner and Dagupan Bus Line at Cubao Quezon City Terminals can take you to Bolinao town proper at a cost of less than P500 for air-conditoned bus.
Travel time is about 7hrs and maximum of 8 hours due to heavy traffic.
Upon reaching the town proper several tricycle drivers will meet you and offer to take you to your point of destination depending on agreed price. They even offer a whole day tour ranging from P600 to 1000. If you can speak in Ilocano, you can try to bargain for a discounted cost and see for yourself how affordable it is to visit the entire beautiful places in Bolinao.
