Rudolph the reindeer

Today Adventure Camp Mehamn had a little different guest, Rudolph the reindeer and his friends stopped by for a visit. Probably the vegetation was tastier here than elsewhere. Adventure Camp Mehamn has something to offer for anyone!

Full action on Adventure Camp Mehamn

These last weeks it has been full action here at Adventure Camp Mehamn. We have had fully booked cabins and hostel. Most of them have been here for the deep sea fishing but also for hiking, bird watching and sightseeing.

Our guest has caught a lot of cod, haddock, wolffish and 15 halibuts. A lot of our fishing guests also fish common sole directly from the cabins while they are resting from the deep sea fishing with good result. One of our guests also caught a lumpfish, which is a pretty cool fish!

Good size cod!

19 kilos halibut!

Our guide John Hedström also caught a halibut

Great start of the fishing holiday!

There are four new fishing groups here at Adventure Camp Mehamn this week and one of the groups got a really great start of their fishing holiday.  They first caught a 16 kilos halibut and then ten minutes later caught another one, and this time a halibut that weighs 22 kilos. Another group founded a big shoal of good sized cod.

Just lets hope that the week will continue in the same way! :)

16 kilos halibut!
