The only thing you have to do here is enjoy everything.... Just sit down and relax. Or take a walk over the cliffs.
If you like you can go for a walk to the "real" Northcape. It taks a few hours (and back!!) but then you're a little more north than the "touristic" northcape.

In the North Cape hall there is a supervideograph, on a 225-degree film screen where you can see the North Cape in an exciting way on a 20 minutes long film.
The shots are really exceptional, accompanied with wonderful music.

The ecumenical “ St. Johannes Chapel.” Ever since 1997, after being wed in the chapel, you can spend your wedding night in the exclusive wedding suite on the top of the North Cape hall!

The North Cape symbol. It is exactly the same design as the Globe on Vikingen Island which marks the point at which ships cross the Arctic Circle.
Europe´s northernmost corner, at 71 10`21” latitude and 21 47`40” longitude.It is located in Finnmark , the land of contrasts - the county has varied and breathtaking nature, from an uncompromising and harsh coastal landscape to peaceful, mile-long plains.

When you have reached the plateau, and only the sea and sky are ahead , you don´t need much fantasy to imagine yourself being on the top of the world – a little bit closer to heaven and a little bit further away from the stress of everyday life.

It is for sure the symbol of Nordkapp and, for this reason, the most photografed monument over there.
If you get there at midnight forget to take a picture alone without other people because everyone is here for the same reason.

Walking down the tunnel you arrive at the so called "Cave Bar". Here you can have drinks and watch the midnight sun - as long as you can see it. The terrace infront of the bar is called "King's View" because of the breathtaking view on the Ocean and the Sun. The photo shows the view - hmmm.... not really breathtaking. The fog was so dense that we couldn't even see the cliffs.
