Acerca de
Datos rápidos: El faro tiene una altura de 42 metros y emite un destello cada 5 segundos para guiar a los barcos a lo largo de la costa suroeste. Su potente lente puede verse desde 20 millas náuticas en el mar.
Destacados: El mecanismo de luz usa una lente Fresnel de primer orden, una de las más grandes y eficientes del mundo. Los visitantes pueden escuchar el leve zumbido de los engranajes rotatorios de la lente, añadiendo un encanto antiguo a las vistas costeras.
Consejos de expertos
- Wear sturdy shoes for the rocky terrain around the lighthouse.
- Bring a zoom lens for close-up shots of the Fresnel lens inside the tower.
- Visit during weekdays to avoid local weekend visitors.
- Check tide times if planning to explore the beach access trails nearby.
