description
Gaukværøy hadde 120 innbyggere på det meste i begynnelsen av 1900. Det er satt opp en palakat som forteller om stedets historie. Nå finnes bare kjellerruiner igjen av husene som stod på øya. Den ble fraflyttet av de siste like etter krigen, og da gjorde material mangel at husene ble demontert og flyttet inn på fastlandet. Derfor finnes ikke noe trevirke igjen på hustuftene. Det går en sti langs hele yttersiden av øya, som fører mellom de tre bosetningene som var her. Kravler du deg opp på en av toppene eller salen i mellom dem ser du inn til Bø og Hadseløya.

The wind forecasts come from yr.no (Norwegian Meteorological Institute), and was last updated 1 hour and 59 minutes ago (Sunday 19 May 08:38 PM). The next night score shows you the worst hour between 22:00 and 08:00 the next night. We recommend that you check multiple sources for wind forecasts. windy.com is a good website to show larger wind systems.

Gaukværøy is surrounded by high hills or mountains. When strong winds come from the mountainous side there is a risk of turbulent or katabatic winds (also called "fall winds"), which may be rather unpleasant. In such conditions, you should not rely on the wind protection score for the coming night. Click to edit.
