The Agdenes Lighthouse or Ringflua is a lighthouse on the Trondheimsfjord in the municipality of Orkland in Trøndelag county, Norway. The lighthouse sits just offshore at a 90 degree bend in the fjord which leads to the city of Trondheim. The old lighthouse sits on the shore, just a short distance from the present light. The lighthouse is only accessible by boat. It is located about 6 kilometres (3.7 mi) east of Vassbygda. About 6 kilometres (3.7 mi) across the fjord to the north is Brekstad in Ørland municipality and about 4 kilometres (2.5 mi) across the fjord to the southeast is the village of Hasselvika in Indre Fosen municipality.
