Lights? It's only the box and the papi. No approach lights there.
You really can't say that because we see them, they saw us. The place is a big sum of multiple visual illusions.
Difficult depth perception, approach over water, threshold on the beach, displaced threshold, short runway, no approach or centerline lights, no horizon because of the hills behind it, runway at an angle on the coast and high MDA after which LNAV and vertical profile go a different way (which can be a distraction at the least or a short moment of vertigo if you don't expect it). And that's in good weather.
The airport is a lot of fun but needs a good preparation and briefing.
