The area

Det Romantiske Huset (the romantic house) is ideal as a basecamp for exploring this part of Kystriksveien and the Helgelad coastline.  On Herøy we reccomend a visit to the flower shop Etcetera, on the road towards Dønna.  This shop is something out of the ordinary.  Also make a visit to the Herøy rural museum, just a few hundred meters away. 

The island to the north, Dønna, is connected by bridge and is well worth a visit. Mount Dønnamannen (858 above sea level) offers a great view.  This is a 4-5 hour trip (it is steep and you should pay attention to the weather conditions). 

Just a short ferry trip away you will find the Petter Dass Museum and the mountain range De Syv Søstre (the seven sisters).  Great for those looking for a mountain top hiking trip (a bit challanging).  

Herøy is ideal for cycling trips and you can rent your bike at the local tourist information on Herøy (by the ferry port).  The roads are flat and going from one island after the other is really an adventure.  

From Seløy on Herøy there are RIB boat trips.  The two hour trip is a good way to get to know the history and way of life on the islands.  During the trip you will see sea eagals - guaranteed.
