Whaling station founded by the Dutch. The red blood of the slaughtered whales gave the bay its name. Today the settlement has 30 inhabitants, 9 of whom work in the new fish factory.
The Hotel Nordlys and the restaurant H8 deserve special mention. It is advisable to reserve in advance.

You can reach this remote village (30 inhabitants) by boat, which you can combine with a walk to a waterfall, with very beautiful nature
