Gjesvaer

We were camping in Nordkapp on the Island Mageroya when we decided that until sunset we would climb to the platform of North Cape, and spend a little time exploring the island. Heeding one of the guides we directed our steps towards a village west of the island called Gjesvaer whose coastline had some islands. One is called Bird Island as many birds go there to lay eggs, you could get there in a small boat. The village had a typical little restaurant where we enjoyed, in a special way, reindeer meat and typical desalted fish. The Tipper from Hooninsvag was built in 1976 and until then could only reached by boat from Gjesvaer.
