An unforgettable trip into the sea! This islet is located towards the ocean to the mouth of Korsfjorden fjord, where you can feel the powerful forces of nature. Marsteinen lighthouse was built in 1887 and has been unmanned since 2002. A concert with Austevoll mannskor choir and Sjøforsvarets Musikkorps will be held on an outdoor stage.


We will have to see how the weather conditions are on this day regarding to the access to Marstein lighthouse. An alternative location will be at the new tourist harbor in Bekkjarvik.
