Skudeneshavn

The North Sea defines the setting of Skudeneshavn — its sheltered harbour on the southern tip of Karmøy has long shaped a life tied to fishing, shipping and coastal travel. The town grew rapidly during the 19th-century herring fisheries and received trading-town status in 1857. Gamle Skudeneshavn, its preserved old quarter, is known for tightly arranged white wooden houses, narrow lanes and quays that retain the character of a Norwegian seaport. Ferries and road links connect the area with the wider Rogaland coast, while the open sea remains close at hand. Continue through nearby webcams to explore different parts of Karmøy and Rogaland.
