Selja Monastery The Western Fjords

Selja Monastery The Western Fjords

The haunting ruins of Selja monastery and the church of St Sunniva on Selja Island date from the 11th and 12th centuries respectively: this has been a place of pilgrimage for over 1000 years. A 40m-high tower is still intact and can be climbed for a splendid panorama. It's about a 15-minute boat rode from Selje; regular boat trips (adult/child 275/120kr) run from the town quay.
