Sunrise at Blackhead Lighthouse, Co. Antrim

Sunrise at Blackhead Lighthouse, Whitehead Co. Antrim.

What do you do when you can't sleep? I drive around an hour from home, and take a walk to a lighthouse for sunrise - and then I go to work!

Blackhead Lighthouse was built and first lit up in 1902. The lighthouse also had an explosive fog signal when it first operated. The lighthouse is situated in the coastal town of Whitehead, County Antrim, and can be accessed by the recently reopened Blackhead Path.
