A dark rock in the frozen sand of Rambergstranda, the sea beyond

Mini-villa and fireplace

After the frozen Rambergstranda we move into the mini-villa overlooking Sakrisøy's yellow rorbuer and spend the evening by the fireplace.

In short

After Nicolas' blue-hour session at Hamnøy we drive to the frozen Rambergstranda, where the frost sculpts bizarre sand formations and we walk far out at low tide. Then we move into the mini-villa overlooking Sakrisøy's yellow rorbuer, and the evening in front of the (fake) fireplace with crackling sound effects turns properly cosy.

Nicolas gets up early this morning to photograph and film the blue and golden hour at Hamnøy. Afterwards he makes us breakfast, which we enjoy together. We pack and check out, as it’s our last day at this accommodation. We’re moving to a place directly opposite the current one: A mini-villa, a tiny house designed on the outside to look like a sweet little villa, with a view of the beautiful yellow rorbuer of Sakrisøy. We already know what awaits us, having stayed in this mini-villa once before, in September the year before last. Before moving in, though, we go for a drive to Rambergstranda, which is very impressive. The sand is frozen into beautiful formations, and because the tide is out at the same time, we can walk a long way out onto the seabed. There are some lovely shells lying on the beach, but we don’t take any. We continue to Fredvang, where we look at the windy beach and its waves with the drone.

After a few more stops we drive back towards the southern Lofoten, first pausing at Anita’s Café in Sakrisøy for carrot cake, a chocolate muffin and a cappuccino with a view of the snowy landscape. After checking into the mini-villa and settling in, we edit photos and have dinner in front of an artificial fireplace. We play the sound of a crackling fire to go with it, which makes the atmosphere really cosy.
