Tokenäsudde, Sector light and lighthouse near Byxelkrok, Sweden

The Tokenäsudde lighthouse extends 14 meters above sea level, featuring red light signals that guide ships through the Kalmar Strait every six seconds.

Built in 1893, this maritime structure served as a crucial navigation point for vessels traveling along the Baltic coast during the industrial expansion of Sweden.

The lighthouse forms part of Sweden's maritime heritage network, representing the engineering achievements of 19th-century coastal infrastructure development.

Visitors can reach Tokenäsudde via the MS Solsund ferry service, which operates regular routes between Byxelkrok and Oskarshamn during summer months.

The structure combines two navigation functions as both a sector light and lighthouse, positioned at the northern point where Öland meets the Baltic Sea.
