About Lång Ljusskär Lighthouse
This square concrete lighthouse stands 5 meters tall on a skerry east of a ship channel, approximately 4 km north of Bondsten lighthouse. Its lantern and gallery are atop the black tower, with a focal height of 7 meters. The light exhibits a white, red, and green sector characteristic visible for 9.3 nautical miles. This operational aid guides vessels through the waters near Pargas in Southwest Finland. The site is accessible by boat, but the tower itself is closed to the public.
Why it matters: The lighthouse's sector light, which changes color to indicate safe passage, is essential for navigating the ship channel. Its placement warns vessels of hazards and guides them away from shallow areas or obstructions within the archipelago.
