About Styrsøy Lighthouse
The Styrsøy Lighthouse stands 9 meters tall with a focal height of 7.5 meters. Its skeletal metal tower, painted white and topped with a red roof, features a lantern and gallery mounted on a tripod. The light emits three occulting white, red, or green flashes in a 12-second cycle, with a geographic range of 9.5 nautical miles. Located in the Sandøyfjord near Løksfjord, off the southwest coast of Rebbenesøya, the lighthouse is operational and maintained by the city of Tromsø. The site is open to visitors, but the tower is closed.
Why it matters: This lighthouse is essential for safe navigation within the Sandøyfjord, particularly for vessels transiting near Løksfjord and along the southwest coast of Rebbenesøya. Its directional occulting light precisely indicates safe channels and warns of potential hazards in this intricate fjord system.
