"Lighthouse" Near Kotor, Montenegro (HWW)

Our cruise ship passed this lighthouse on the way into Kotor. While the modern ATON is definitely a light, the original structure may have been a customs building or such, perhaps guarding the approach to Kotor. The walls are quite impressive for this small enclave nestled between towering mountainsides and the water.

Regular cruise ship, but I like to climb up to the top deck, when there are photo ops. We were rather close to the shore, but apparently there is quite a drop-off there. Rather a bit like Alaska, where you think you are going to the hit the rocks, but the water is hundreds+ deep just off the rocky shore.

The scenery near Kotor is amazing!
