About Flesi Lighthouse
Flesi lighthouse stands on piles in the northern entrance to the Hjeltefjord, near Øygarden, Norway. This pentapod structure, measuring 13 meters tall, features black piles and a white lantern and gallery, topped with a red lantern roof. Its light is 11 meters above sea level and emits white, red, and green flashes in a cycle of 6 seconds. The lighthouse guides vessels through the reef in the sea region, offering a geographic range of 10.7 nautical miles. Although the site is open to visitors who can reach it by boat, the tower itself is closed to the public.
Why it matters: The lighthouse's sector light warns mariners of the reef it marks within the busy Hjeltefjord. Its unique five-pile pentapod design is a notable example of engineering adapted for a marine environment.
