One of the best spots in Norway. Occasionally hollow right and a less intense but longer left break in a mountain flanked bay

The islands are within the Arctic Circle yet the temperature rarely falls below zero due to the gulf stream. Made famous by the Rip Curl Search team in 2008, but the quality of the waves speak for themselves
