About Sandøy Lighthouse
Sandøy Lighthouse is a square skeletal tower constructed of steel, standing 6 meters tall and covered with white siding. It features an octagonal lantern and gallery. The focal height of the light is 26 meters, and it emits a light that cycles through white, red, and green. Its characteristic is three white occultations every 10 seconds. The lighthouse is situated on a small island about 4 kilometers west of Værlandet, Norway, in the Vestland region. While the site is open to the public, the tower itself remains closed.
Why it matters: This lighthouse is essential for safe navigation in the coastal waters west of Værlandet, where its directional light guides mariners through channels and past hazards.
