Whitby West beach and Pier

Whitby West beach and Pier
A view of this iconic west pier built in two halves, one in stone and the other oak. We also see its beacons and lighthouse. A right pier also exist and that is also glimpsed here holding the red topped beacon tower and the smaller right hand lighthouse.

The west pier lighthouse was built in 1831, and is a stone 83 feet column tower with a lantern on top. This light still displays a green light when shipping is expected. A newer lighthouse beacon stands at the end of this pier, a wooden framework tower on 'legs' built in 1914. Only the older west pier lighthouse is open to the public, but on a limited number of days per year.

Entering the sea, like a moored boat, it allows us to be on top of the sea and so we can better appreciate it
Beautiful perspective, Herb

The shallow waves look so nice lapping gently to the shore Herb. Thank you for the information. I really want to visit Whitby! Cheers, Rosa.
