Also known as: Solandsneset (Solandsnes)
This square wooden tower stands 6 meters tall, with its light positioned 8.5 meters above sea level. Built in 2018, it replaced an earlier structure of the same height and material. The lighthouse emits two white flashes, red, or green light every 8 seconds, depending on the direction of approach. Its geographic range extends to 9.9 nautical miles. The tower's red color contrasts with the surrounding natural environment on the west side of the Saudafjord.
