This page shows the documentation of
the Southern Lighthouses of West Norway. You can
always click on the photo of the light to go to a specific (larger
resolution) copy. Each lighthouse name is linked to (in our editorial
opinion) the best reference site for that light.
I would like to include directions on
how to get to these lights. If you know such data, could you eMail
me
and I'll post it here (with your choice of attribution.)
There has been significant
usage of the
Lighthouse Directory
prepared by Russ Rowlett (UNC). Lighthouse coordinates and
orange reference numbers are via
Norsk Fyr. My thanks to them for providing this basis
for understanding.

This lighthouse marks the southern entrance

However, the road to the lighthouse is gated, so visitors must be

to the site. Located about 8 km west of Sveio and 3 km off the pavement
of highway 541.
