Yes, the lighthouse is really working! We got there with my wife in the evening, when he started working. It seemed to us that it would be higher, but we didn't care))) The approach to it is not quite simple, through some kind of gate next to the former factory. But it didn't bother me) It doesn't burn all the time. As someone wrote, it burns for 5 seconds, about 8 rests. We took photos and videos and decided to go to the lighthouse itself. Of course it is closed, but we were impressed by the door! Antique, 188.. some year ago. 81 like. not the point... He's all steel. Such a "giant"! Monumental, powerful and modest, shining alone into the distance for up to 30 km, to wandering ships.....

We rented a room in a guest house in the city of Sukhum near the old lighthouse when we were vacationing on the Black Sea in July. There are few people on the beach, the sea is transparent and warm, but you need special rubber shoes to go into the sea, since the shore is covered with large and small pebbles.

A wonderful place!The purest sea (because it is a cape), not a large pebble, a strip of sand and a lighthouse.I have known him for more than half a century (all my life), I have climbed up more than once.Excellent view of the surrounding area, even New Athos is visible.I remember the lighthouse as snow-white, it was refreshed annually.And for thirty years now it has been rusting, although it continues to honk.The lighthouse keeper's house has been destroyed.Enthusiasts and funds are needed to restore and preserve this monument.
