About Fleina Lighthouse

Fleina Lighthouse stands on the southwest end of a small island, approximately 1 km north of Helløy. This square tower, painted white with a red lantern roof, measures 6 meters in height. Its focal plane is 12 meters above sea level. The lighthouse emits an occulting white, red, or green light with a 6-second cycle, providing a geographic range of 11 nautical miles. Access to the site is by boat, and while the island is open to visitors, the tower itself remains closed.
