Baltimore Beacon is a striking white-painted stone structure perched dramatically on the cliffs near the entrance of Baltimore Harbour in County Cork, Ireland. Built in 1849 as a daymark to guide ships safely past the treacherous rocks of the Atlantic coast, it stands 15 meters tall and offers panoramic views over the rugged coastline and surrounding ocean.
