About

Svinør is an island in Lindesnes Municipality in Agder county, Norway. The 0.3-square-kilometre (74-acre) island lies immediately south of the mainland by the village of Åvik. The island essentially forms the southern part of the Åvik village harbour. The island sits about half-way between the Lindesnes peninsula to the west and the town of Mandal to the east. The fishing village is very picturesque due to its wooden houses dating back to the 1700s and 1800s.
