A very nice photo backdrop. The rocky beach is directly behind it. My recommendation: => wear water shoes here.

Nice little fishing port. On the pier there is a fishshop there you can buy and eat fish. For vegan there is only falafel available. There is also a bigger restaurant, and at the exit of Sandvik there is a supermarket and a pizza/kebab restaurant. Both the fishshop and pizza are open off season. Be aware that before midsummer the availability of food places are scarce.

In Sandvik at the harbor there is a fish stall, also with cold drinks and ice cream, so a good place to take a break
