Sightseeing:
The busy fishing community of Rørvik lies at the center of a group of 6000 islands, islets and skerries known as Vikna. Situated on the Namdal coast of Northern Trøndelag on the north west coast of Norway to the north of Trondheim and south of Bronnoysund, this area is alive, teeming with birds and several species of fish. Vikna is the place for wildlife enthusiasts as well as deep-sea fishing, diving, canoeing or kayaking.

Currency:
The Norwegian currency is the Norwegian crown (norske krone), abbreviated kr. A 1/100th krone is called øre. 1.00 EUR = about 8 NOK
ATMs in Norway are called Minibank.
Nearly all stores accept major credit cards such as Mastercard and Visa (Bring your passport/driver's license, as you are required to identify yourself when using a credit card).
Communication:
Norwegian is the official language of Norway. The language is very close and mutually intelligible with the two other Scandinavian languages, English widely spoken.
Most Norwegian households are connected to the internet in some way (often broadband), making Cybercafés hard to find outside major cities, due to a relatively small market. Most public libraries have free public access to the internet. WiFi is in many spots (not free).
Opening Hours and Holidays:
Opening hours in Norway are better than they used to be, but many smaller stores still close early on Saturday (1 PM or 3 PM is typical) and nearly everything is closed on Sundays. You'll often see opening hours written as "9-21 (9-18)" on doors, meaning 9 AM to 9 PM weekdays, 9 AM to 6 PM Saturday.
