Sgeir Dhearg Lighthouse

Sgeir Dhearg Lighthouse
Otherwise known as Beacon Rock. It is in reality a small, active navigation light built in 1901 and is 7.5 meters high standing just outside of Mallaig harbour. In the background we see the shores of the Isle of Skye with its impressive mountains further away.

Have a good day.

A scene that so many visitors here would have witnessed. As lighthouses go it was not very spectacular but you can't have everything as the scenery makes up for any shortfalls in the structure. Thanks for the call.

Best Wishes. Herb

Thanks Diana. The road to the Isles ends just before this and then a sail does it for most people. Glad you liked it.

Not the most impressive of lighthouses, but as its name suggests, it stands out like a beacon and gets the job done!

It sits in a very beautiful location which you've captured perfectly Herb. I love the light, especially where it's reflected off the water. Great work my friend..!!

I am glad that you like this one Keith. I must admit that my take here looks even better than the whole scene. Light, as you know is everything.

Yes, anybody going or coming back to Skye would know this beacon just before going out of Mallaig. Pleased to bring back, hopefully pleasant memories my friend.

Cheers. Herb
