Pier lights Zuiderhoofd (foreground and lower picture) and Noorderhoofd (background) in June 2004.
They mark the mouth of river Maas (Maasmond).
Both lighthouses have helicopter platforms. These are the only entrances to the lights, because of the piers are out of reach and also
ships can't dock at the piers.
The position of the photographer was the outer district of the harbour territory of Maasvlakte, behind the
lighthouse Maasvlakte following the main street about one kilometre.
