About this place
Kvalvika is a secluded beach on Moskenesøya's west side, set between cliffs and mountains. It is reached by a walk, so it feels far from the main road. People camp here in summer, and the sea is cold with a strong swell.
Local tip
Take all your rubbish back with you and keep any fires out of the dunes.
Safety
The walk is on uneven, sometimes wet terrain. In winter check the avalanche warning at varsom.no, check weather and conditions, and turn back if in doubt. The sea can be dangerous.
