Corbiere Lighthouse

Corbiere Lighthouse is the UK's most southerly lighthouse. Built in 1873 to protect sailors from some lethal looking rocks it has saved countless lives. It also happens to be a most beautiful spot, possibly the most picturesque corner of a very picturesque island. We were staying in appartments at Corbiere Phare, a restaurant/bar next to the lighthouse and almost all these photos were taken from the terrace. A couple were taken during an evening walk across the causeway at Low Tide. I particularly like this photo, it is (when not condensed for this website) a lovely deep purple colour. .
