About Kvartelsøy Lighthouse
Kvartelsøy is a 6.5-meter concrete mast with a lantern and gallery, painted white and topped with a red lantern roof. It is located on a small island west of Ulvøy in Norway's Nordland region. The operational light exhibits a white, red, or green signal on a 6-second cycle, with the color changing based on the direction of approach. This sector light is designed to guide vessels through the complex local waters and mark the passage around the island. The site is accessible by boat, though the tower itself is closed to the public.
Why it matters: Kvartelsøy's sector light provides directional warnings, aiding local vessels in navigating the waters west of Ulvøy by indicating clear channels and potential hazards near the island.
