Thridrangaviti Lighthouse
Þrídrangaviti Lighthouse is an active lighthouse 7.2 kilometres off the southwest coast of Iceland, in the archipelago of Vestmannaeyjar. It is often described as one of the most isolated lighthouses in the world. Þrídrangar means "three rock pillars", referring to the three named sea stacks at that location: Stóridrangur, Þúfudrangur, and Klofadrangur. The lighthouse was commissioned on 5 July 1942.
