History
The lighthouse was established in 1892. A radio beacon was active from 1947 to 1992.[3][4]
The lighthouse emits a white, red, or green light (depending on direction) using a 3 seconds on, 3 seconds off pattern. The light sits at an elevation of 35 metres (115 ft) above sea level. The 10-metre (33 ft) tall square tower is painted white, with a red lighthouse on the top.[5][6]
