Re: 2019 Light Dues.
Very true but as we know buoyage around The Algarve is sparse at not always that reliable - as visitors sometimes discover!
For many years entry to The Guadiana was a case in point but of late it has improved.
In this case I suspect Spain & Portugal hold each other responsible but little comfort of you end up on the training wall (on the Spanish side)
The fee is not only for lights but also for buoyage. I suspect that for many people the buoys are more important than the lights but the entrance to a channel can be a bit tricky too although I agree that lighthouses are less important than they used to be.
