Tourist in Norway, illustration photo. Copyright NG.
Location: Tjøme Municipality, Norway.
Text by Tonsberg Tourist Centre.
Verdens Ende or "World's End" lies furthest south on the island of Tjøme.
The area has fantastic views towards the Skagerrak. Superb bathing and fishing possibilities from smooth rocks and islands.
The name "World's End" originated amongst travellers here in the beginning of the 20th century.
Before that the area was best known as vantage point for pilots looking for ships. The well known "basket lighthouse" and the restaurant were built in 1932. The long pier from the mainland out towards the small islands forms a protected harbour basin. Here lies one of Tjøme's largest Marinas with service buildings. There is also a grill area. Several fishermen from Tjøme have their boats there. Post from Verdens Ende is stamped with a special post-mark.
