Tvistein Lighthouse

Tvistein Lighthouse stands on the eastern of two small islets about three kilometers south of Hummerbakkfjorden. The lighthouse is a coastal lighthouse and has beds for up to 17 people. The season is from May to September.

There are great fishing and diving opportunities around Tvistein. Tvistein Lighthouse is also a great destination for day visitors. From the wharf, there are great swimming opportunities, and it is well organized to get ashore easily. Due to the good distribution between the islands, there is often great clear water out here.

The accommodation
The lighthouse has 17 beds in 7 rooms. There is 1 bedroom in the main house, 1 in the "Fyrgården" and 5 in the outhouse. The room in the main house has 5 beds, and the room in "Fyrgården" has room for 2. The 5 rooms in the outhouse have 2-3 beds in each, distributed between double beds and bunk beds.

There may be other visitors to the lighthouse at the same time. As an overnight guest, you share the kitchen, bathroom and toilet with the other overnight guests. The bathroom is in the main house, while the shared kitchen is in the "Fyrgården", also called "Sjefsboden" (meaning the chief booth). There are several outdoor areas to use, but also a common living room in the Machine House, if you want to sit inside.

Overnight guests must bring their own bedding (duvets and pillows are provided), as well as their own food, drink and water. Water from the cisterns can be used for brushing teeth, washing hands and for cooking, but it is not drinking water. The kitchen is fully equipped, and there is a barbecue for free use.

Transportation
Transport to and from the lighthouse is from Laberget marina in Nevlunghavn.

It is also possible to arrive on the island by your own boat, or by taxi boat if you want to come for a day visit. There are also boats that can be hired by groups on request. The harbor at Tvistein is well sheltered from the southwest, but not from the north. There can be a lot of sea in the harbor, so be aware if you come in your own boat.
