About Norsk Fyrliste Lighthouse
Built in 1897, Sør Botnen Lighthouse is a 4-meter octagonal structure with a rubblestone base, painted white with a red roof. It is situated on a point of land that marks the south side of the Frøysjøen sound entrance, approximately 8 kilometers north-northwest of Florø. The lighthouse emits an occulting white, green, or red light on a 6-second cycle. Its geographic range is 7.9 nautical miles. The site is open to the public, though the tower itself is closed. The nearest port is Dyrstad, 6.1 kilometers away.
Why it matters: This lighthouse is indispensable for safe passage into the Frøysjøen sound, a key navigational channel along Norway's western coast. Its directional light system specifically guides vessels around the point of land, preventing groundings and ensuring smooth entry into the sound.
