Baily Lighthouse
Najbolje vreme za posetu
Arrive at sunset in summer or early autumn, when the lamp begins flashing and the cliffs glow golden. Weekday late afternoons are calmest, before weekend walkers crowd the path.
Saveti za budžet
Viewing costs nothing, as the tower overlooks a public cliff path. Pay only for parking in the village below, then do the walk on foot; no tickets or passes are needed.
Preporučeno za
Coastal walkers, Photography enthusiasts, History buffs, Sunset chasers

O atrakciji
Brze činjenice: Žeravnica na ugalj iz 1667. nekada je plamtela na ovom rtu, upozoravajući brodove mnogo pre nego što je sagrađen današnji toranj. Poslednji svetionik u Irskoj sa stalnom posadom prešao je na automatski rad 1996, okončavši više od tri veka službe čuvara.
Istaknuto: Unutar lanterni, ogromno sočivo okreće se na plovku koji leži u plitkoj posudi sa tečnom živom, tako da se ceo mehanizam okreće gotovo nečujno. U vedrim noćima snop doseže 23 nautičke milje u more, beli puls na koji se brodovi u prolazu poravnavaju dok prilaze zalivu.
Insajderski saveti
- Wear grippy shoes, the final stretch climbs steep, uneven rock
- Set up on the grassy ledge below the tower for the classic shot with the city skyline behind it
- Pack a windproof jacket, Atlantic gusts hit the headland without warning
- Skip busy weekend midday crowds and aim for the golden hour before dusk
