Hoddevik Surf Guide
This steep sided valley that terminates at this super pretty bay, has become something of a waveriding Mecca in recent years; the switchback road and beach backdrop has become one of the defining images of Norwegian surfing. With its consistent and beginner-friendly peaks, the line-up is often bustling with a surprising number of surfers. Summer sees small, fun, peeling waves and there are a couple of busy surf camps here. Can get good in medium sized swells but tends to close out when a bigger swell hits. There is a consistent righthander that breaks on the northern breakwater end.
