The Coubre lighthouse is due to disappear soon

Event/The Coubre lighthouse is due to disappear soon

Built in 1904, the Coubre lighthouse was at the time 1.8km from the coast. Today, the ocean is only 130m away! In addition to the water infiltration weakening the lighthouse, there is also the retreat of the dune that is reaching the building, the mass of sand is also a danger. The state has decided to take the lead and a dismantling has been decided, without a precise date for the moment. We must prepare minds for its disappearance and organize navigation.
