Havparadiset in Hafsund
Events and rentals all year. Summer season with open restaurant from June until August
Vertshuset på Kjønnøya - The Inn on the island of Kjønnøya
Havparadiset i Hafsund – Vertshuset på Kjønnøya is located in a historic place for naval trade and fish processing on the Norwegian coastline. History is combined with modern facilities and an inspirational environment.
We want Kjønnøya to be a meeting place for our guests, local and cabin residents, and visitors. Kjønnøya is open for everybody during the summer season, with the restaurant, concerts and good experiences. The rest of the year it's open for conferences, weddings, and other events.
