Landing

Islets and skerries without a quay are reached by your own boat or by kayak. Many of them lie inside seabird reserves where landing is banned in the breeding season, as a rule from 15 April to 15 July. The boundaries and the dates are in Naturbase at the Norwegian Environment Agency, and they are worth checking before you go ashore.

Nearest island with an article

Snarøya lies about 1.2 km from here. Opprinnelig en øy, men sundet ble fylt igjen og Snarøya er i dag en landfast halvøy ved Fornebu. Tett boligområde med populære badeplasser som Rolfstangen og Halden brygge.
