About the spot

Refsnes lies on Jeløy’s western side and is used in northerly wind. Water is relatively deep and choppy; too much east in the wind brings it over land.

The local club describes access boundaries in detail. Read these alongside current beach occupancy; a map point is not permission for the entire bay.
