What kind of boat is available at Skudeneshavn 182 Fish Camp?

When is the best time for sea fishing from Karmøy?
Spring through autumn (May to October) brings stable weather and good access to cod, saithe, pollack and ling on grounds west of Karmøy. Long summer days mean extended sessions, while autumn often produces larger cod closer to shore. Winter weather is less reliable.
How do you get to Skudeneshavn 182 Fish Camp?
The nearest airport is Haugesund, Karmøy (HAU), 29 km north of Syre. Direct routes operate from Oslo, Copenhagen, Aberdeen and London among others. From the airport, drive Fv47 south through Karmøy to Skudeneshavn and a further 3 km north to Syre. A rental car is recommended.
Is this a traditional rorbu fishing camp?
No. Skudeneshavn 182 Fish Camp is a standalone 3-bedroom holiday home with a fishing boat, not a rorbu complex with multiple cabins, shared facilities and on-site host. It suits groups of up to six who want a private house and self-organised fishing and meals.
