President visits the Commissioners of Irish Lights on the 50th anniversary of the Kish Lighthouse

The President marked the 50th anniversary of Kish Lighthouse - an important factor in maritime safety, but also an engineering feat: The lighthouse replaced a lightship which was one of a series of such vessels that marked the Kish Bank since 1811.
