Isle of Man is self-governing British Crown Dependency in Irish sea. It has rich lighthouse traditions, so i would like to share some pictures made during my trip.
On approach to Douglas (central city) you could see Douglas Head lighthouse:

And inside of Douglas Harbour - Battery Pier lighthouse:


Just a side of the harbour Refuge Tower with navigational light mounted on top

Small town Ramsey, north from Douglas, has two nice lighthouses in the entrance:
North pier:


and South pier:

New pier of famous tourists Castletown:


And Longeness lighthouse seen from same pier far away:

One more town Peel with Castle Pier lighthouse:

And Peel Breakwater lighthouse:

Excellent pictures and makes me envious that I wasn't there to take them. Thanks for posting them.

Great pictures of lights that most of us will never get to see in person. Some interesting ones in there. I wonder what the building the cafe is in used to be, especially sitting right on the beach.

Thanks for sharing them, Dmitry!
