The huge pier, constructed of massive concrete (not hollow-bodied), is itself some 150 feet long, 12 feet wide and over 18 feet deep to the ocean floor. The pier also has a slip around 50 feet long and over 10 feet wide, all of which is lit at night. The pier has been approved by the marine authorities and its construction today would cost some 500.000 €.

The water on Horse Island emanates from a depth of some 250 feet, pumped into a concrete silo to the island's highest point (145 f.) from where it builds up water pressure like you're accustomed to in the big city and it's in mineral water quality!
