About Svartskjær Lighthouse
Svartskjær lighthouse stands on a skerry within the Hasfjord, approximately 8 kilometers west of Hasvik. The 9-meter structure features a skeletal concrete tower painted black, supporting a white lantern with a red roof and a gallery. Its light emits a directional white, red, or green signal on a 6-second cycle. The lighthouse is accessible by boat, and the site is open to visitors, though the tower itself remains closed. It is located about 1.5 kilometers from the nearest port in Hasvik.
Why it matters: The directional light from Svartskjær is essential for guiding vessels through the Hasfjord, marking safe channels and subsurface hazards. Its placement on a skerry highlights its role in marking underwater dangers in an area frequented by fishing fleets and coastal traffic.
