Le Phare de la Pointe d'Agon is a small lighthouse situated at the north of the mouth of the River Sienne, in the Commune of Agon-Coutainville, Département of La Manche, Normandy, France. It faces towards Regnéville-sur-mer, on the opposite southern side of the river mouth.
Still active today, the lighthouse was the first of northern France to be powered by solar panels; four of which being installed in 1985.
Apart from its practical use by sailors and fishermen, it is also visited by hikers who follow the sentier de grande randonnée 223 (GR 223), and has become a tourist attraction.
