About Strømøyan Lighthouse
Also known as: Strømøyan (Strøymøyene)
The Strømøyan lighthouse stands on the southern point of Ytre Strømøy, about 12 kilometers north of Brønnøysund, Norway. This active navigational aid has a 6-meter high tower constructed from piles, with a focal height of 7.5 meters. The structure features a white lantern and gallery atop black piles, topped by a red lantern roof. Its light emits two white, red, or green flashes every 8 seconds, depending on direction, with a geographic range of 9.5 nautical miles. The site is open to the public, but the tower itself is closed.
Why it matters: The lighthouse is essential for navigating the specific channels around the southern point of Ytre Strømøy, where its multi-directional light provides precise guidance to ships. Its unique pile-supported design is adapted to its marine environment.
