About Stokkbleikjene Lighthouse
The Stokkbleikjene lighthouse was established in 1918 on a skerry southwest of Stord island, Norway. This 7-meter rubblestone cairn features a lantern with a white finish and a red roof. Its light emits an occulting white, red, and green signal that cycles every 4 seconds. The structure is situated off a promontory, marking a narrow passage between the islands of Stord and Bomlø. The nearest port, Stocksund, is 1.5 kilometers away.
Why it matters: This lighthouse is important for guiding vessels through the narrow channel between Stord and Bomlø. Its colored light specifically warns mariners of the dangers associated with the skerry and the required alignment for passage.
