About Svettgrund Lighthouse
The Svettgrund lighthouse is situated on a skerry approximately 2 kilometers off the northwest coast of Halsön. This square pyramidal skeletal daybeacon stands 12.5 meters tall and is constructed of wood. It features a large, diamond-shaped daymark painted deep red. The focal height of the light is 11 meters, and it emits a white, red, or green sector light on a 3-second cycle. The lighthouse has a geographic range of 10.7 nautical miles. While the surrounding site is open to the public, the tower itself remains closed.
Why it matters: The Svettgrund lighthouse's sector light is essential for guiding vessels through the specific channels and around the skerries off Halsön's coast. Its distinctive deep red daymark makes it a unique visual landmark in the Finnish archipelago.
