San Pedro Light, Ivory Coast

This very rare photo of the San Pedro Lighthouse was taken by Steffen Neumann and contributed to the Directory (with Mr. Neumann's permission) by Jürgen Klinksiek. The second largest port of Côte d'Ivoire, San Pedro is located in the western part of the country. The lighthouse is on a headland outside the city. Mr, Neumann reports that the lighthouse is surrounded by jungle, and he found it defended by three not-very-friendly dogs; one of the dogs appears in the photo, just above the base.
