Lighthouse Skrypleva
Today the port city of Vladivostok begins immediately after the sound marine "gate" - the right side of the ship pass by the green beam of the lighthouse Basargina and left - past the island Skrypleva that glow red.
Lighthouse Skrypleva appeared in 1876, just after the landing crew "Manchuria" in the Amur Bay. Unique phenomenon - the lighthouse island, which is half an hour from the city by boat, but is a separate state as to which is not reached and hardly will get plugs, elections, infill development ... It even helicopters, citizens become familiar in recent years, do not reach.
During World War II there was antiboat battery where running ensign very young girl watching the six combat guns. This fact dispels the urban legend about the seaside "Alcatraz».
"Desert" - said in the guide, but in fact the island lighthouse resides with his family - Yuriy Vakulenko, his wife Love Vakulenko and her mother Raisa Samoilov:
- In 1989, I brought my friend here, Vladimir Samoilov. His ideas and strength to do all that there is today. For years the lighthouse coal, but we went the other way and was transferred to the island of diesel fuel, which to this day supply from the mainland. Unfortunately, for health reasons in 2003, Vladimir was gone, and I was left here to maintain the lighthouse. Who, if not I?
From afar, seemingly small and completely uninhabitable island Skryplev was an affable place. Among the cliffs stands a lighthouse with a cozy annex of a house - the royal building, meter-thick walls, high arched ceilings. In the yard - two dogs who can compete in size with a small bear, but it can not bite. Scattered around the hill a few gardens, which grows herbs, berries and vegetables.
- A little later we all matures - says Raisa Samoilov - but grows no worse than anywhere else in Primorye.
It seems that life at the lighthouse measured and calm, but the whole family is liable watch - every three hours is necessary to check the condition of the lighthouse or turn it on schedule drawn up for the year. In addition, attention should be paid diesel engine - mechanical heart of the island. Works all missing.
- Skryplev - a real lighthouse family - says Yuri Vakulenko - as in 1989, Samoilov brought us here, has infected an energy island, the opportunity to live on his plot of land and manage it, so we are here and we live - happily and harmoniously.
As a real "governor" of the island, Yuri loves Skryplev all my heart, even found a special here "wise place" where thought about all the problems and decided to important questions. "Our Albion" - so the family Vakulenko and Samoilov dubbed Skrypleva island, which is true, is often covered in fog so thick that no one can see the sea.
Steep inaccessible cliffs on the one hand, the wide road hospitable - the other. On the shore runs erratically incredible amount of crabs, moist wind blowing - a truly relaxing atmosphere. Meanwhile Skrypleva lighthouse - the oldest and most powerful lighthouse in Primorye, pushing the light beam into two dozen miles ahead, every second is ready for operation.

"When we have a storm, lightning, dogs whine, sift the house. Afraid. But no one outside the island will not be allowed. Good dogs. Their mission - to stop the man. Do not bite, namely to stop. They did not bite anyone else and will not bite, because everyone on the island with kindness, good island. "- Says Yuri.

But then again, all clouded, and a lingering loud honking ships from somewhere far disturbed the quiet serenity of the island.
14. The well of water.
15. Many ask why this island car ?! I asked myself this question when I first saw it. The second question was about how he got here ?!
Yuri explained, "And you imagine. Here are brought to you by 12 tons of supplies, and how do you, I'll drag it all to the lighthouse ?! Before him, on this road however as 300 meters. And so, all loaded, but in one swing flew upstairs. - Laughs - I put on the road traffic police post, but hang signs. Fast, easy and fun. »

However, a strong wind gave us really fly, copter constantly carried away to the side. a little bit, but it was blowing. After a couple of shots put him.
18. At the beginning of the street a bit dark, and that means it's time to take a stand and run to the bank.
24. At 21:54 the fire beacon Skrypleva already pierced the misty canopy. Perhaps it was the only plus fog - clearly visible red bows main lamp lighthouse (there is also a double).
25. filmed outside of us spend inside the tower.
