A source for this article is thewanders.eu .. it contains a typo, saying the rock is 120 meters tall, this is incorrect, it's 120 FEET (source). Also, it claims the height of sight is 9 nautical miles. Maybe, but a query of a chat AI suggests a light situated at 34 meters would have a height of sight of 15-20 nm, more likely on the upper-end of that. With factors like strength of the light, weather, etc.. in play. Maybe it's a weak light due to the small scale of the lighthouse. In the context of lighthouses, "height of sight" refers to the elevation at which a lighthouse's light can first be seen from sea level. For example, if a lighthouse has a height of sight of 20 nautical miles, that means the light it emits can first be observed by a mariner from a boat or ship when their vessel is 20 nautical miles away from the lighthouse, assuming standard atmospheric visibility conditions. -- GreenC 14:16, 12 October 2023 (UTC)Reply
