In Flatanger you will find pittoresk coastal landscape, woodlands, agricultural areas and areas with mountains. Our beutyfull location by the Atlantic with allmost 1400 small and larger islands where anyone can make a visit makes us an very attractive destination. In Flatanger you can get very close to the elements. The nature can vary from beutyfull varm days when the sea is calm and the sun is imaging between the islands to days when the nothern atlantic is raging, sending waves and the cleanest air in Europe with eccceptional strength against the coast. It is a paradise to those who like activity and untamed nature.




Sea fishing:


Our unique coastline is the base fore one of the riches sea fishing possibilities in Norway. During the latest years Flatanger has established it self as one of the best places to experience sea fishing. There is a number of possibilities – Simple fishing from the shore without any kind of aid, to carefully arranged trips in larger boats where everything is focused to satisfy the eager fisherman/woman.



Sea eagles


In Flatanger we have some of the densest populations of sea eagles in Norway. A visit to Flatanger gives you great opportunities to see this magnificent and majestic bird at relatively close range. During the latest years we have been visited by a lot of nature photographs who come to Flatanger to photograph sea eagles and other birds and animals. We have a small local business who offers special arranged tours to those who wants to watch or photograph wildlife.



Culture, sightseeing and attractions:



Flatanger has a history with settlements that goes several thousand years back. It is possible to find traces of historical activity in many places.

There is also newer cultural attractions; Villa lighthouse which is one of the last coalfueld lighthouses in use in Norway. Then we have Utvorda costal fortification which is a large facility established by the Germans during World War II. Guided trips to Villa or Utvorda can be arranged.

In Utvorda there is a locally famous restaurant which can offer seafood in a number of variations in a nice atmosphere.


Thanks in advance for viewing and comments.
Have a nice weekend,
Harry

Hi Harry,
Bijzonder indrukwekkend!
Vorige maand had ik op de Lofoten boven de poolcircel het gevoel dat ik wel een paar dagen dag en nacht wilde omdraaien daar, het was zo adembenemend mooi, maar ja je zit met je echtgenoot en een reisplanning.
Dus jij was vorig jaar in het hoge noorden!

very beautiful great colours and comp

Prachtige foto Harry. Erg mooi qua compositie en de kleuren zijn gewoon super. De diagonale lijn van de wolken partij geeft de foto een erg mooie diepte. Je lage POV en de stukjes zeewier in de voorgrond maken de foto echt perfect.
Groeten,
Niek

Hi Harry,
This sunset with nice reflection is a unique and rare moment which we can see! Excellent capture and great clarity of these warm colors. The composition is perfect. Bravo! Annie

Hi Harry, wonderful shot of the sunset! I love the colors you captured and the reflection is very nice. A 'Kodak moment' for sure. TFS.

Hi Harry,
Wonderful scene, nice shot and another one wonderful sunset on TrekLens with lovely atmosphere and fantastic contrast between black mountains silhouettes, orange sky and clouds, fantastic reflection.

Best Regards,
Alex

Impressive light and sky . Add this to a waterfront scene, we have now a breathtaking image.
Well seen and captured Harry!
Travelling in Scandinavia in summer time must be very difficult. The days being sooooo long , the tegmperature sooooo cool, and sunrises and sunsets soooooo long and beautiful. Making it very hard to jump in your bed , to get some rest !
Bravo!
