Røst Islands - Bird Crags

There are also boat trips from Reine (five hours), as well as from Bodø (five hours) and Vaerøy (2.25 hours), to the remarkable Røst Islands, almost 100km/62mi from the mainland, with a series of high crags (Vedøy, Storfjell, Stavøy, the Nykan rocks) inhabited by a large colony of seabirds, including some three million puffins as well as rare species like the greater and lesser storm petrel and the fulmar. The crags can be reached by boat from Røstland, and during the season by helicopter from Bodø.
