I saw scuba divers finding big stone blocks in the Alexandria harbor...that were alleged to be parts of the Alexandria lighthouse after the several earthquakes.

Is this wrong ?

Somewhere or other I’ve seen a photo (or perhaps a drawing?) of a miniature version of the ancient Pharos of Alexandria; it was constructed in ancient times and may have been one of a number such standing on a series of sites west of the city.
