Beskrivning
Beautiful views and plenty of places to explore in a relatively small area, including the pier, rockpools, and beach. Parking and places to eat also in abundance. Huge noisy colony of tretåig mås breed underneath the pier in late summer, allowing for very close and intimate views of chicks and adults with little disturbance. In summer, this is a reliable place to see svarthuvad mås, often side by side with skrattmås. Through winter, flocks of sandlöpare, strandskata, and Gråtrut can be seen regularly, along with Storskarv, havstrut, and silltrut. smålom have also been reported here.

Can be lots of people fishing on the end of the pier, but are often happy to let birders through to see the tretåig mås.
