Best spot ever! We have been here last summer. 21 Celsius, a short swim in the sea and an amazing barbecue in the dunes!

Absolutely amazing. Beautiful place with great views for the Northern lights. We went in December and the parking was not clear from snow, and the toilets were locked. Still, amazing roads, outstanding views. Worth the effort.

Really nice place with a great view, but toilets are closed in winter (at least in february).

Still worth going there though, even if we did not stay! -
We stayed here in October and experienced the most spectacular display of the northern lights!
