There is currently a lightship on the end of the sands, on the farthest part out, to warn ships.

The southern lighthouse is now owned by the National Trust, and the northern one is still in operation.

Famous quotes containing the word aids:

    From the point of view of the pharmaceutical industry, the AIDS problem has already been solved. After all, we already have a drug which can be sold at the incredible price of $8,000 an annual dose, and which has the added virtue of not diminishing the market by actually curing anyone.
    Barbara Ehrenreich (b. 1941)
