Lighthouse of the Week, November 12-18, 2017: Gelendzhikskiy Vkhodnoy, Russia


Last week I featured a lighthouse on the Black Sea, and as I indicated in that post, I returned to the Black Sea this week.  This week's lighthouse is Gelendzhikskiy Vkhodnoy.  It's located at the entrance to this bay on the Black Sea.   Here's what the Lighthouse Directory says:
"Date unknown. Active; focal plane about 55 m (180 ft); two white flashes every 15 s. 42 m (138 ft) octagonal concrete tower with lantern and double gallery, painted white with three red horizontal bands."
There's no indication of how tall it is.  But here are some pictures, one near and one far away:
