Plumb Point Lighthouse - Historical landmark in Kingston, Jamaica
Plumb Point Lighthouse in Kingston
Description
Privilege
С 1853 года, второй по возрасту маяк Ямайки.
no public allowed, but one can walk around . No going up the light house stairs anymore, but a safe and quiet bay that is beautiful always. frequented by surfers who ride waves at the east point of the bay. Swimming not advisable . only fir the seasoned open water swimmer who understands currents and waves.
Morebeautiful lighthouse, isnt it? lets see if you can find this one too, have you spotted the pattern yet? unlikely...
MoreJust a beautiful scenery to be a part of
Its lovely to see the sun set here. Standing there with the ocean behind and this massive tower in front of you, it makes your problems seem quite small for a moment. I always find it calming being here. Only thing I dont like is the shoreline is littered with garbage. Notwithstanding some solar panels that are in disrepair, the lighthouse seems well-kept. I love to see the view from the top.
