Welcome to Grøtavær Pier!

The pearl known as Grøtavær lies on the western side of the island of Grytøya, and is surrounded by numerous coves, islands and islets that protect Grøtavær from an otherwise harsher sea climate. Grøtavær has a long history filled with cultural significance as an old fishing community, and thus has influenced the neighboring communities a lot.
