St mary's lighthouse

If you're ever in the Newcastle area I recommend that you visit this lighthouse. I went on a cloudy day, and even though it started to rain, it was a memorable experience. The lighthouse is located on the island of St Mary's, north of Whitley Bay and connected to the mainland by a concrete road during low tide (during high tide, it is inaccessible). The headlight doesn't work anymore, but there is a small museum, bar and gift shop, and lovely landscapes around the area.
