Description

Hridi Grebeni consists of a chain of barren, jagged, and reddish above-water rocks that lie on a reef between 0.2 and 0.6 mile W of Rt Petka.
A passage leads between these rocks and the point, but it is only used by small vessels with local knowledge.
A light is shown from a prominent structure, 13m high, standing on the W rock of this chain. In 1872, this lighthouse was built to guide sailors to the port of Gruz. The building of the lighthouse is located near a narrow channel between two rocks.

Hridi Grebeni se compose d'une chaîne de rochers au-dessus de l'eau, stériles, déchiquetés, et rougeâtres qui se trouvent sur ​​un récif entre 0,2 et 0,6 M à l'W de Rt Petka.
Un passage mène entre ces roches et le cap, mais il n'est utilisé que par les petits navires avec des connaissances locales.
Un feu s'élève sur une structure de premier plan, haute de 13m, sur ​​le rocher à l'W de cette chaîne. C'est en 1872 que ce phare fut construit afin d'orienter les marins vers le port de Gruz. Le batiment du phare se trouve pres d'un canal etroit entre deux roches.
