One has to wonder if they'd save any money by shutting it off during the landward-facing part of the cycle.

But that looks like it'd be very slim, since that little spit of land looks to be right out in the middle of water, or very darn near it--it could well be seen from all around within some distance, or not at all in some ranges. At any rate, I like it and it bothers me all at once--maybe something like having a light shine in my eyes: interesting to feel that.

Given that the light is from kerosene lanterns? I suspect not.

What light is it? Most modern lights are electrical, and several of the old-school ones have been retrofit.

Oh, it's pidgeon point. That's an electrical light with a fresnel lens.

Since it's ornamental these days, I guess cost-cutting measures are moot.

No, it's kerosene lamps - once a year, they light it up old-school, and this is one of those days.
