Sommarøy Camping & Marina - Reviews

auto-translated: Very beautiful area. Check-in at the machine. We paid NOK 300 per night, including electricity. Some pitches with gravel, others with grass. The site filled up in the evening at the end of August, but this was no longer a problem at the beginning of September. Beautiful sandy beach next door. Café and shopping facilities across the street. Gray water disposal, toilet disposal, and fresh water available. Toilet with code that you receive with your payment on the ticket.

auto-translated: Nice location on flat ground, with an area reserved for tents, but windy with very few hedges. No reception, you have to pay at an automatic terminal, which gives you access to the toilets and sinks. Showers are coin-operated. Same for the washing machine. There are only four cabins that combine all of these facilities, so you have to queue even though the campsite is half empty. (Also accessible to the general public for a fee.) However, it is heated and fairly clean. A kitchen with a small refrigerator and two tables is also available. But there are lots of nice spots nearby for wild camping, so it's up to you.
Other useful information: there's a café opposite the campsite (not tested), as well as a Supercharge terminal (CCS+Chademo), a grocery store a little further away, and a great pedal kayak rental (!) just after.

auto-translated: Alternative overnight stay on 31.12.2024 (the planned location was not accessible). But was pleasantly surprised by Sommaroy Camping. Apart from me, there were only a few northern lights hunters here. In winter, only the rear toilet and the disabled toilet (with shower) are accessible, which I think is sufficient. The toilets here are also used by the public (small fee), so of course there were corresponding “traces” (garbage cans, etc.) but they were OK.
It's also a great place for the Northern Lights, at least I had a very nice sky fireworks display with rockets here. The barbecue hut was open, but unfortunately there was no firewood to be found.
I would love to come again.

auto-translated: Nice, small CP with transit character. Sanitary facilities in very good condition and clean. Top showers for 10NOK. Level site in a fantastic location on the Arctic Ocean. Very crowded in the evening, as starting point for Senja.

This is a remote campsite, i.e. there is no reception. The ticketing system worked well but the problem with such a system is that it encourages neglect by the owner, and there was ample evidence of this in the kitchen where the bin was overflowing, the floor dirty, the fridge unhygienic. The kitchen is small and the seating area likewise with room for no more than four. There is no kettle.
Little thought has been given to the area for tents.
The site is exposed and there is no protection from the wind. In typical Arctic weather, it is unavoidably cold. This is not the fault of the owner but it is a fact of life. If the conditions were warm and sunny, I can imagine my feelings about the site's position would be different since it lies next to a small sandy beach.

auto-translated: Beautifully located by beach. 250 NK, lovely shower 10 NK.
The camper area is busier than the tent area. Toilets and shower clean and spacious. Kitchen is not clean, could be better.

auto-translated: Plots on the meadow or gravelled. Showers with 10Kr coins, washing

auto-translated: Camping without reception. Book in via vending machine. 3 toilets with shower plus one without shower. Washing machine and dryer available. Small kitchen. Disposal for camper (water, sewage, toilet) available. Everything in good condition. Snack bar opposite.

auto-translated: Situated directly at the water (if you have a tent, please note the wind forecasts beforehand), level pitches for WoMoWoWa, level meadow for tents. Payment by machine, use of WC by numeric code, shower 10 NOK for 5 min (here you actually need coins in the credit card country Norway). Small kitchen with basic equipment. Café is right across the street.
All in all a recommendable place.
