About Litlenæringen Lighthouse
Litlenæringen lighthouse stands at the easternmost point of Sørøya island, perched atop a vertical cliff. This cylindrical fiberglass tower, standing 10 meters tall, was built and first lit in 2005. Its white structure is topped with a red lantern roof. The focal height of the light is 36 meters above sea level. It emits an occluding white, red, and green light with a cycle of 6 seconds. The site is accessible to the public, though the tower itself is closed.
Why it matters: The lighthouse represents modern fiberglass construction, a durable and cost-effective solution for Norway's remote coastlines. Its location provides directional guidance for vessels navigating the northern Norwegian Sea.
