Lighthouse Neyst Point, Scotland
From series “Top 15 Most Fascinating Lighthouses”Year: 1909. Height: 43 m.
In the western part of Scottish island Skuy has placed the legendary lighthouse "Neyst Point" - one of the most beautiful in the world. However, this tower is popular among tourists due to its architecture peculiarities. The area, where the lighthouse is situated, is ideal for viewing the whales and dolphins.
From 1971 the lighthouse was an architectural landmark of the state significance. On the coastline you will see not only the lighthouse but also the old keepers' houses. Unfortunately, nowadays all these buildings are the private property. That’s why tourists can't visit them. You can adore the wonderful lighthouse during the whole year. A lot of tourists come here in summer to watch the jumping from the water whales and dolphins. Next - Lighthouse Kovalam
