Description
At the far end of the archipelago on the cliffs of Skagsudde by the sea stands Skags lighthouse. When it was newly built in 1957, the pilot crew was moved from the old pilot station on Stora Haraskäret. The old Skags lighthouse was built in 1871, a 17.5 meter high Heidenstam lighthouse, was located on the small island of Gråklubben northeast of Skagsudde as a landing lighthouse for the entrance to Örnsköldsvik. The current modern lighthouse and pilot station has a 26-metre-high tower placed almost 13 metres above the water's surface.
