From Kya in the south to Halten in the north - more than 5,400 islets and skerries off the Trøndelag coast.
Frøya - the gateway to an archipelago of 5,400 islands, islets and skerries
Frøya sits at the very edge of the Trøndelag coast, surrounded by one of Norway's most remarkable archipelagos — more than 5,400 islands, islets and skerries. The municipality has close to 5,800 inhabitants and is one of the country's most important aquaculture communities. Sistranda is the main village and administrative centre, and it is home to Hotell Frøya and Rabben Marina, among others.
Øyrekka - from Kya in the south to Halten in the north
Øyrekka, the island chain, stretches across 74 kilometres of open sea, from Kya in the south to Halten in the north. Along the way lie the fishing villages and island communities of Sula, Bogøyvær, Mausund, Gjæsingen, Sørburøy, Sauøya and Halten - living coastal communities shaped by fishing for generations. A round trip through the Frøya archipelago offers scenery you will not forget: open stretches of sea, white bedrock, lighthouses on the horizon and abundant birdlife, with the sea eagle a constant companion.
Summer in Øyrekka
In summer, Øyrekka truly comes alive. The fishing villages fill with festivals, concerts, deep-sea fishing competitions and cultural events for adults and children alike - and the pubs, cafés and restaurants on the islands open their doors. Hop from island to island by boat and discover that every fishing village has a character of its own.
