About Teistholmen Lighthouse
Teistholmen lighthouse is situated on a skerry east of Vetegjøgraskjæret light, approximately 2.6 km from Fedje. The current structure, a 6-meter fiberglass tower painted white with a red roof, replaced an earlier skeletal tower. Its focal height reaches 8.5 meters, providing a geographic range of 9.9 nautical miles. The light emits an isophase white, green, or red signal on a 2-second cycle, indicating its directional nature. This facility remains operational, guiding vessels through the local waterways.
Why it matters: The lighthouse warns mariners of the hazardous skerry it marks. Its modern construction reflects an adaptive approach to maintaining maritime safety infrastructure in challenging coastal environments.
