Light House at Ratnadurg




One of fascinating experience we have at Ratnadurg, a wide spread fort in ratnagiri also called Horse Shoe.

There is one Light house which is 102 m long in height with black and white bands.
This light house has range of around 28 nautical miles.
Detail information by Indian gov you can find at below link.





This is great experience to walk across fort and then visit light house. 

It cost Ru 10 per head to go up in light house, which has round stair cases.
This light house worked on solar power it has wide solar plates and light bulb surrounded with spherical prisms which spread light approx more than 50 KMs







Officials in light house gave us brief introduction on light energy and how it is useful for ships and costal guards.

There is one way from light house from village to go at gateway of Ratnagiri passing aquarium.
