Orre beach

Take a walk on the beach on a wet autumn day with the sea in turmoil, or experience a summer evening with a blazing sunset; a calm, blue sea, and a horizon of infinity. The ever-changing light in this part of Norway has inspired many landscape painters. The beach has the Blue flag certificate.

Orrestranden beach is a three-kilometres long sandy beach. Possibility to buy food and drinks at the Orre friluftshus, as well as toilets, barbecue facilities, and parking for cars and bikes. The centre is one of the stops along the Norwegian Scenic Route Jæren. The beaches of Jæren are part of a protected landscape area, where both plants and birdlife are protected. This means that it is not allowed to surf, kite, camp, cycle or pick flowers. Kiting is only possible on the following beaches: Sola, Hellestø, Byberg, Bore and Brusand.

Orrestranden beach obtained the Blue flag certificate in June 2017. The blue flag season is from 5 June to 31 August. ​​​
