Søre Krokavassnuten is a minor peak commonly accessed from the Haugesund side. The top provides wide views over the surrounding moors and the coastal landscape of the Haugalandet region.

Marilyn Monroe is connected to Haugesund through a myth about her father, Martin Mortensen, who was born there, as well as through a statue of the film star on the quayside. A bronze sculpture of Marilyn Monroe, unveiled in 1994, stands on Indre Quay near the Quality Hotel Maritim and symbolizes the city's connection to film. The myth that Marilyn Monroe's father, Martin Edward Mortensen, was from Haugesund has long existed. He emigrated to the United States in 1922. However, DNA evidence from 2022 suggests that her biological father was a colleague of her mother and had no Norwegian roots. Although the truth about her father is disputed, the statue and its name have become a symbol of Haugesund as a film city.

A small, sometimes rocky, path leads along the idyllic Eivindsvatnet. There are picnic benches and barbecue huts around the lake.
