Lindesnes

Lindesnes marks the southernmost point of mainland Norway, a windswept peninsula where the North Sea meets the Skagerrak. The area is dominated by the iconic Lindesnes Lighthouse, Norway's oldest lighthouse station, which has guided ships since 1656. The raw coastal scenery, with crashing waves and heather-covered cliffs, makes it a powerful destination for nature lovers and history buffs alike.

A panoramic window allows you to follow sea life while having one of the (rather upscale) menus. Booking is mandatory as the restaurant usually only hosts up to 40 people.   ( updated Jun 2019 )
