Tvistein Lighthouse
Tvistein
Tvistein Lighthouse was established in 1908, and the light was first lit the same autumn in a low tower on the roof of the keeper’s residence. Storage buildings and a boathouse for the lighthouse staff were also built, and the first lighthouse keeper was Johan B. Nielsen (1908–1913).
Tvistein Lighthouse is a unique cultural heritage site located on the outer edge of the archipelago off Nevlunghavn. After more than 10 years of restoration work and over 10,000 hours of volunteer effort, the lighthouse reopened for accommodation and visitors – a result of strong local commitment and dedication to preserving coastal history.
At Tvistein, visitors can experience coastal nature, history and traditional maritime culture up close. The lighthouse offers accommodation in historic surroundings close to the sea. Transport to and from the lighthouse is by boat from Laberget marina in Nevlunghavn.

These include a small hotel for overnight stay, a resturant and a kiosk.

History
There have been people living in the area since the Viking Age. The farm has a history as far back as the 17th century and was the ideal farm close to the ocean. Those who lived here in acient times had their work on the farm, they went on fishingtrips and several worked as skippers on sailboats.
On Mølleråsen, a short walk from the farm you will find the farm's mill, wich was set up in the early 1800s, and was probably one of thef first in Sandefjord.

Transport

By boat: The island which the lighthouse is built upon is quite samm and as a result it is very exposed to the elements. there is also a lack of good spots to anchor, though there are several spots where kayakks can easily dock. If one wishes to use ones own motor boat to visit then the hosts at the lighthouse must be contacted first. Any use of a private boat is done at the owners risk. Alternatively one can dock at the guest port at Eastern Bolæren for a fee and travel out to Fulehuk from there.
Safety
Young children must be looked after at all times as there are several cliffs and many slippery rocks to fall on. If you bring children it is
recommended that they wear life vest while outside. Remember that it is the law to bring life vests if one arrives in a private boat. The lighthouse
lies far out in the fjord and the weather can change at a moments notice.
