Descriptions and reviews

Dan Mossmann says:

area

description

Dock alongside in here. Space for two boats. Easy entrance, but narrow.

At the top of Vikilen, there are burial mounds along the entire strait towards Ullerøy.
There is also one right near the dock. The mounds were placed along the rowing route where people traveled. On the way to Farsund/Lista, there are very many mounds along the rowing route. These could easily be reused and moved, and some were also built upon.
(All are dated to the Migration Period, around 400-600 AD.)

Want to know how the wind score works? Then you should read this explanation.

The wind forecasts come from yr.no (Norwegian Meteorological Institute), and was last updated 1 hour and 43 minutes ago (Wednesday 11 December 11:27 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.
