Photos Kinn Island ✨🏔️
There was a strange magical atmosphere the whole time. There were only about six of us on the island altogether. An incredibly beautiful and positive experience. Stunning views of the sea, an unbelievable cliff, and a fairytale-like touch🇳🇴🏞️🧚🏻♀️🍄🏔️✨ this is Kinn Island in Norway (Sogn)

As the other guy said it is not in Sogn but in Sunnfjord. Fun fact about the place, you can see it clearly in the beginning of the first (new) Dune film, before Atreides leave their home planet.

It's not in Sogn, but if you were here as a tourist, you wouldn't know.
There's a show (theatre thingie, couldn't find a better word) there every year, where they recreate some historical event.
I've seen it a couple times, it's a fun theatre show played by mostly locals.
There's a clip at the bottom of this page.

My grandparents are buried by the church there, so i visit them when i'm back home in Florø.
It's a beautiful place.
