Majority of the Fliti family reside in this area. The Lighthouse of Nemours, as displayed is also known by the locals as "Deux Frères". The rock itself is climbable however, requires a 7-to-10 minute swim from the pier/port to reach whereas, a ladder attached to the rock will allow you to climb onto a staircase to then walk around the top of the lighthouse, in which oftentimes locals dive and jump from 95 meters high. This activity can be recognized just by standing at the pier/port.
