Rørvik

26 July 2002, 20:30 - 21:15

Rørvik, with 2,500 inhabitants, is the capital of the island group Vikna consisting of almost 6,000 islets, skerries and islands.

The town lies in a sound between Vikna and the mainland, and all coastal traffic passes. This makes Rørvik a trading and shopping centre. Here you also find a coastal museum. And lots of birds on the islands.

Rørvik is the rendezvous point for the northward and southward bound Coastal Express ships. That evening, the MS Midnatsol met MS Finnmarken.
