Description
Lighting up the westernmost point of Jamaica, Negril's Lighthouse stands at 20 meters (65 feet) tall and is one of the earliest concrete lighthouses, having warned ships away from the promontory since 1894.
Originally powered by kerosene, the Lighthouse switched to solar power in 1985 and flashes every two seconds.
We climbed the 103 steps, very narrow and steep, and the view was incredible. I wish I had been able to return at sunset with my camera. We were on a dinner cruise when I shot this.
