Flatflesa Lighthouse – Your Exclusive Private Island in Norway

Flatflesa Lighthouse offers an exclusive lighthouse stay in Norway — a truly unique travel experience. Here, you stay on a small rock in the middle of the sea. “Flesa,” or “fles,” means beloved or cliff. Yet this cliff has all the facilities you need for a comfortable stay, and it remains safe in all kinds of weather. The houses out here have stood strong and secure for 116 years.

Here, you and your guests can enjoy a stay with a private chef or catering, go swimming, fishing, or relax in the charming “crab shack.” Transportation to and from the island is also arranged.

Serving food and drinks at the first station is taken care of by our staff. Out here, you should first and foremost relax and let us do the practical work. However, there is of course full opportunity to be with our chefs when the meal is prepared with ingredients you may have brought from the sea.
