Roer Mill Beach and Haaf Fishing Böd
Highlight • Historical Site
This is the only safe landing place along the section of coast between Uyea and Sandvoe.
The ruined building is a Haaf fishing böd. Open fishing boats from Uyea would bring their catch of fish here to Roer Mill as this was a better beach for drying the fish.
