Description of our neighbourhood and surrounding area
Our neighborhood is quiet and relaxing. There is a steep hill up to the house from the fjord. In Vatlandsvåg there are both holiday homes and local homes, friendly surroundings were we love to go in our weekends and holidays. We can probably get you a small boat to use for fishing, and there is a jacuzzi to rent by the hour by the fjord. If you go by ferry or passenger speed boat you can get a good look of the beautiful fjords and islands. There are little villages with small shops and cafés, and several activities, both cultural and outdoor.
