Røvær is an island group in Haugesund Municipality in Rogaland county, Norway. The islands lie off the mainland shore about 10 kilometres (6.2 mi) northwest of the town of Haugesund. The 1.4-square-kilometre (0.54 sq mi) Røvær islands have about one hundred permanent residents (2014), as well as seasonal residents and visitors who rent vacation homes, stay at Røvær Seahouse (Røvær Sjøhus) or the newer Røvær Culture Hotel (Røvær Kulturhotell). The permanent residents who are not retired support themselves principally through farming, fishing, employment at the express boat service, teaching at the island's local school, working at the salmon fish farm, or by commuting to work on the mainland. During World War II, the island was occupied by German military forces, and there is still a concrete pillbox on Varden, the island's highest point.
Feøy is a small island group in Karmøy municipality in Rogaland county, Norway. The 1.3-square-kilometre (0.50 sq mi) island group lies west of the town of Haugesund and the island of Karmøy, southeast of the islands of Røvær, and northeast of the island of Utsira. The island has 49 permanent residents, plus a number of seasonal residents and visitors who rent vacation homes. The permanent residents who are not retired support themselves either through sheep farming, fishing, or by commuting to jobs on the mainland. There is an old wharf on Feøy that was converted into the Feøy Brygge, a small meeting house and restaurant that caters meetings and parties. During World War II, the Germans occupied the small island with troops because the area was an organizing site for resistance workers moving between Norway and Britain.

What an awesome experience! The RIB safari tour in Norway was pure adrenaline and jaw-dropping scenery all rolled into one. The boat was super fast, the landscapes were absolutely stunning, and the whole ride felt safe but exhilarating. There wasn’t much narration, but honestly, we didn’t miss it. The views spoke for themselves, and we were too busy grinning from ear to ear as we sped across the water. If you’re looking for a fast-paced, no-fuss, seriously cool way to experience Norway’s coastline - this is it. Highly recommend!

A wonderful way to see some of the villages you wouldn't get the chance to visit. It's lots of fun and you have many photo opportunities

Very good, but short, I thought it was a 2 hour excursion and it was barely 1 hour, the rest is how long it takes to dress and undress, but it was very good
