This is probably the nicest beach in Southern Norway and you shouldn't miss it. It's located on the Island "Karmøy" and is faced to the west. It is top rated and has facilites like showers, restrooms, a small ice cream kiosk, parking. Clear water, white sand, beautiful sunsets. What more can you expect? This is a little further away from the apartment, about 45 min drive, but it's one of the best highlights in this region.
