15 Most Remarkable Lighthouses on Earth
Ойын-сауық
World trade has, for many thousands of years, relied on ships to traverse the oceans. Even with detailed maps this has historically been dangerous because of the risk of sailing into shallow waters, so in regions where this was a particular concern, beacons were built to act as a warning. We don’t rely on them so much now, but many of the structures still remain on the coastlines around the globe as a testament to how important they once were… so, from historical monuments to modern day designs, it’s time to take a tour around the 15 most remarkable lighthouses on earth.

After my parents retired from the army we could see Bishop's Rock, Wolf's Rock and The Longships (from the attic) lighthouses from their house. Lying in bed in near total dark skies, watching the lighthouses blink was mesmerising.
First I am a recluse and I know it and deal with it. I think I would really like being a watcher

There are some amazing lighthouses on the east coast of Canada.🇨🇦
First and thank you for these amazing videos 😊
It's too bad that you did not include the lighthouse at Peggy's Cove, Nova Scotia!
Really disappointed none of the Michigan lighthouses made the list. Our state has 129 lighthouses.

It's unfortunate people outside of the midwest don't realize how dangerous and how many shipwrecks happen in the great lakes
Lighthouses? now you're speaking my language! (rests oar against the wall)
Great video ❤
Cảm ơn rất nhiều thank you so much ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I love your videos you’re the coolest KZreadr
I dream of light house.
We live in a real world. At sea, nothing beats a real lighthouse.
Mm three Irish lighthouses will be of interest. They all come under the Commissioners Of Irish Lights and are all now automated. 1 : Fastnet (way way out in the Atlantic and the most southerly and westerly part of Ireland). There is an annual yacht race done round it. It is known as the Teardrop Of Ireland (prob the last sight of departing emigrants ages ago). 2: Hook Head on the SE of Ireland and near to Waterford. It is also one of the oldest lighthouses in the world and opp it is Crook Head (hence the phrase By Hook or by Crook!). 3: Inishtrahull. Alto the most northerly part of (mainland) Ireland is Malin Head (in Co Donegal, in the Republic and where some Star Wars scenes were done), actually just to the north of that Head is this small islet, with a huge tall lighthouse thereon. And strictly even the lighthouse isnt actually THE most northerly bit. Just north of that islet is a wave- lapped rock, Inishtrahull Beg and that is the ultimate Northern part if the Emerald Isle.
Why is the bells light house not included

@Martin Daubert If you mean the Bell Rock Lighthouse, I agree with you. It was built from 1807 to 1810 and is the oldest operational offshore lighthouse.
The Bellrock light house? Portland and Bill?
Do you really think lighthouses on land pose any risk to their keepers? So ridiculous.
woww
