About Lyngøyholmen Lighthouse
Lyngøyholmen is a 6.5-meter lantern structure painted white with a red roof, mounted on a platform supported by piles. It stands on a small island approximately 2.5 kilometers north of Garnvika, off the north coast of Frøya. The lighthouse displays a directional light characterized by three occultations in white, red, or green every 12 seconds. Its focal height is 5.5 meters, providing a geographic range of 8.6 nautical miles. The site is open to visitors arriving by boat, though the lantern structure itself is closed to the public.
Why it matters: This lighthouse is important for local maritime traffic, especially fishing vessels, by marking safe channels along Frøya's complex northern coastline. Its distinctive design represents an adaptive engineering solution for its island location.
