About Smitskjær Lighthouse
This lighthouse stands on a small skerry on the north side of the upper Vestfjord, approximately one kilometer north of the Seingen light. The structure is a round rubblestone tower, 7 meters high, topped with a lantern. Its focal height is 12 meters. The tower is white with a red roof, and the light emits an isophase white, red, or green signal every 2 seconds, with a geographic range of 11 nautical miles. Smitskjær lighthouse has been operational for an unspecified period.
Why it matters: The lighthouse is essential for safe passage on the north side of the upper Vestfjord, warning mariners of the skerry it occupies. Its color-coded light indicates safe channels through an area with complex underwater topography.
