Take a tour of Olbia Lighthouse in Olbia, Italy - part of the World's Greatest Attractions travel video series by GeoBeats.

Illuminating the way for Sardinian ships is the Olbia Lighthouse.

Olbia itself is a commune on the northeastern coast of the island.

The town went through several name changes before reverting back to its original moniker in the 1940s.

The lighthouse was built in 1887 and stands 82 feet high.

It is an active lighthouse, but because of this, the site itself is closed to visitors.

You can only reach the lighthouse by boat, which affords spectacular views of the Port of Olbia.
