RIB trip – one of the many highlights
Colourful vegetation
The resilience of plants and nature is truly fascinating. They claw onto and between rocks and cliffs, where-ever they can find sustenance. Many herbs reside on the island, and most of them are edible.
Roche moutonnée
The majority of the shoreline consists of roches that are easy to walk on. The rock formations and vegetation vary throughout the island, so there’s always something new to see around the next bend.
"Klubbkeila"
This is a roche formation on the northern side that the children used to bathe and swim in and around back when the island was permanently inhabited.
Told to Anne by Marie Nilsen, a 85 year-old lady who lived her first 16 years on the island.
Shades of autumn
Stunning autumn colours cover the island in September, with the white caldonia contrasting the vibrant reds and oranges.
Pebble beach in the midnight sun
One of the biggest pebble beaches is located in Hellemolla. Paired with cliffs, making this a truly special place.
Impressions
There are many photographable scenes all along the route.
