Redrib Cottage Locals Experience
Overview
Escape the city and spend a day with the locals on their private summer cottage island. Combine it with the thrill of riding a rigid RIB boat! We visit their stunning island with its silky smooth cliffs. Meet the lovely family hosts, just taking a brake from their ordinary summer holiday to open up their private summer cottage for us. Hear all about cottage life, fishing and World War II history. Try the sauna with its breath taking view. Take a guided nature walk and hear all about swimming moose and blueberries. Sit down on warm cliffs and enjoy the home made archipelago lunch on this relaxed day. Just like the locals. With the locals. The RIB boat takes you back to the city in 30 min after this mini vacation.
