Flatflesa Lighthouse (Norwegian: Flatflesa fyr) is a coastal lighthouse located in Aukra Municipality in Møre og Romsdal county, Norway. The lighthouse lies on the small island of Flatflesa, about west of the island of Gossa and about east of the island of Sandøya. The original lighthouse was established in 1902 and in 1988 a new automated tower was completed.[1] [2]
The 11m (36feet) tall round, cylindrical, fiberglass tower is white with two black stripes. The 30,800 candela light emits white, red, or green light (depending on direction) occulting three times every 10 seconds. The light can be seen for up to 11nmi.[3] [4]
The lighthouse was eventually converted into a hotel. There are accommodations for a limited number of guests at the lighthouse, but it is still functioning fully.[5]
