About Søre Sørøyholmen Lighthouse
A 6-meter concrete post, painted white with a red lantern roof, stands on a small island west of Søvik. This operational lighthouse has a focal height of 7 meters. Its light emits an isophase white, red, or green signal on a 6-second cycle, with a geographic range of 9.3 nautical miles. The site is open to the public, though the tower itself is closed. The nearest port, Heroy, is 5.9 kilometers away.
Why it matters: This lighthouse is indispensable for local maritime traffic, particularly guiding fishing vessels and smaller craft through complex coastal waters. Its directional light, indicating safe channels and warning of specific hazards, is critical for secure navigation in an area likely characterized by hidden rocks and variable depths.
