About Obrestad Havn Lighthouse
This 3-meter octagonal fiberglass tower, painted white with a red roof, is situated southwest of the Obrestad lighthouse at a small boat harbor. It emits an occluding white, red, and green light on a 6-second cycle, with a geographic range of 7.9 nautical miles. The tower stands 3 meters tall, with the light positioned 4 meters above sea level. While the site is open to the public, the tower itself is closed. The nearest port, Sirevag, is 11.2 kilometers away.
Why it matters: The light's directional system, which changes color based on approach, assists mariners in safely entering the Obrestad Havn harbor by helping them avoid shallow areas and obstacles.
