Le Phare du Bout du Monde

Le Phare du Bout du Monde, La Rochelle

Le Phare du Bout du Monde, La Rochelle

I am wondering who hasn't ever been a fan of Jules Verne, the famous french fiction writer. His famous works such as: "Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea"(Vingt mille lieues sous les mers), "Around the World in Eighty Days" (Le tour du monde en quatre-vingts jours) have been brought onto the screen,  and you could also get into Captain Nemo's submarine in Euro Disneyland.

Here is exact place in his novel "The Lighthouse at the End of the World" (Le Phare du Bout du Monde). You could see nothing beyond the lighthouse, but the endless Atlantic Ocean. When the tides go higher in the afternoon,  the lighthouse is almost soaked up inside the sea.
