About Alkskjær Lighthouse
This 12-meter metal structure on a skerry southwest of Ytre Alkskjær light is painted white with a red roof. It features a lantern on a platform supported by piles. The light emits white, red, or green flashes every five seconds, with the color indicating directional guidance. The site is open to visitors arriving by boat, but the tower itself is closed. The lighthouse provides a geographic range of 11 nautical miles.
Why it matters: The lighthouse's multi-colored light offers precise sector guidance, helping vessels navigate safely around the skerry and within designated channels.
