The Santa Marta Lighthouse is a lighthouse located on the Fort of Santa Marta in the district of Lisbon in Portugal.

The strategic position for military purposes and maritime navigation meant that the Lighthouse Commission, in 1864, recommended the installation of a light at Fort Santa Marta.
This lighthouse serves general navigation in the Bay of Lisbon and also serves as an alignment, as a front light, with the Guia lighthouse as a rear light.
