Grip Lighthouse

The {{convert|44|m|adj=on}} tall lighthouse is a red cast iron tower on a white {{convert|16|m|adj=on}} granite stonemasonry base. This is the second tallest lighthouse tower in Norway. The lighthouse's range is {{convert|19|nmi}}, and the white, red, or green light, depending on direction, is occulting every eight seconds.{{cite book|url=http://www.kystverket.no/arch/_img/9719183.pdf|format=PDF|author=Kystverket|authorlink=Norwegian Coastal Administration|language=Norwegian|title=Norske Fyrliste 2008|year=2008|isbn=978-82-450-0628-5|url-status=dead|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20110724181909/http://www.kystverket.no/arch/_img/9719183.pdf|archivedate=2011-07-24}}

The islet is barren rock with just the lighthouse tower, a concrete boathouse, and two wharves. The lighthouse keepers lived inside the lighthouse tower. A radio beacon was operated between 1947 and 1986, which was replaced with a frequency-agile racon signalling "G" with a range of 4 nm. The lighthouse was electrified in 1932, and is unmanned since it was automated in 1977. In 2000, it became protected as a cultural heritage site. The pilot station was shut down in 1969.
