The best accommodations Norway

The campsite is located near the sea where you can easily dive, kayak or go on a sea safari. This is where the strongest tidal current in the world is found! This is due to the fact that on one side is the sea, on the other the fjord, and the variation of the sea level is about 2 meters per day! The pressure is therefore incredible and creates whirlpools that move constantly. In short, to come back to the campsite... it is at the top level of installations and especially ideally located to admire this unique phenomenon in the world!
