About the event
In October 2025, we started restoring kelp forest in Øksfjord.

We are returning to Øksfjord at a critical time, as kelp starts growing back.
Free accomodation for Friday and Saturday night, and dinner on Saturday are offered to the volunteers.
Rissa Citizen Science does not provide snorkeling/diving equipment. Unless you have your own equipment, we recommend that you become a member of SUT to have access to the equipment you need to snorkel or scubadive. Get in touch with us if you have questions.
This project is supported by Sparebankstiftelsen.
