Kvalvika Beach

Highlight • Beach

The beach can only be reached on foot via a very rocky ascent and descent - a very popular hike - one is not alone on the road. On the beach there are many places for an overnight stay in the tent.

It worked on the second try😅. A dream beach that could also be in the Caribbean. Only the weather is Norwegian....

The Northern Lights are gone, the wind is up.
That doesn't deter us, and we head for the north side.
