Description
Brentetangen is located in the Oslofjord. Many birds use the Oslofjord when migrating in spring (May is the best best month, all skuas and loons possible in one day). And heavy wind from south blows stormbirds/shearwaters in the fjord (August and November are the best months). Among the birds you can see around Brentetangen are Manx Shearwater, Cory's Shearwater, Long-tailed Skua, Sabine's Gull, Pomarine Skua, White-billed Diver and Common Scoter.

Access
From E6 (highroad): Outside town Moss, follow sign to Moss and Larkollen. Drive south against Larkollen. 200 m before you arrive Larkollen, turn right when you see a sign "Botnerbaugen". Drive 200 m through a forest. Here you find a parking place. Walk 50 m out to the sea. Here you sit/stand on the rocks and watch out on the sea. It's 6000 m over to the other side of the fjord, so you need a telescope. The morning is the best time of day.
