The Journey
Røvær Island
Escape to Røvær, a captivating island oasis just off the coast of Haugesund. This idyllic haven boasts a close-knit community of around one hundred permanent residents, who thrive through farming, fishing, and a deep connection to the sea. Explore the island's rugged coastline, discover hidden coves, and marvel at the panoramic views from Varden, the island's highest point, where a WWII-era pillbox stands as a silent testament to the past. Immerse yourself in local culture with a stay at Røvær Seahouse or the Røvær Culture Hotel, and savor the tranquility of island life. Røvær is not just a destination; it's an experience that will stay with you long after you leave.
Feøy Island
Discover the unspoiled beauty of Feøy, a charming island retreat in Karmøy municipality. This small island, west of Haugesund, offers a peaceful escape with its tight-knit community and stunning coastal scenery. Wander along the shoreline, breathe in the fresh sea air, and witness the harmonious blend of tradition and modernity in this serene environment. Visit Feøy Brygge, a converted wharf now serving as a meeting house and restaurant, where you can sample local cuisine and soak in the island's relaxed atmosphere. During World War II, Feøy played a role as an organizing site for resistance workers, adding a layer of historical intrigue to its natural allure.
