The island is currently without a permanent settlement; the old buildings are used as recreational buildings. Join a 3-hour trip to Grip. The whole trip with transport to/from and stay and guiding the island takes about 3.5 hours. On the island, you get a guided tour that ends up in the very beatiful Stave Church of Grip.
