How do lighthouses actually work?

725 views

I’ve been listening to a podcast where they cover the mystery of the Flannan Island lighthouse and it struck me that i’ve never actually understood how a lighthouse works other than shining a beam of light at the ocean? How do the ships know what do and how to steer through the water?
