Linesund Lighthouse
Location & Light Range
About Linesund Lighthouse
A 4-meter stone tower with a white finish and red roof stands on a rubblestone base at Linesund. This quadrilateral structure is situated on a skerry within the narrow Linesund passage, located between the islands of Sokn and Åmøy. Its light displays white, red, and green hues, cycling through a 6-second period. The operational lighthouse has a geographic range of 7.9 nautical miles. The site is open to the public, but the tower itself is closed.
Why it matters: The lighthouse is essential for navigation through the Linesund, a constricted waterway, as its directional light warns mariners of the skerry and guides them through the channel.
