Midsummer bonfires have long traditions in Norway. It marks the longest day in the northernmost hemisphere.

At Rubbestadneset there is the beach in Furuneset which is the place for a midsummer bonfire.
At Furuneset, a tradition has gradually developed of having a bonfire on a small fleet out on the sea.
This year, the fire was built by a good carpenter and was designed so that it looked like a small boat with a dragon head in front.
In addition to the fire on the raft, there was also a bonfire on the beach, on the rock.

The pictures show the bonfire in various stages.
Some show close-ups of the bonfire. But most of the pictures show the bonfire in the beautiful nature of Rubbestadneset with the mountain Siggjo in the background.
On some of the pictures, we can also spot some recreational boats.
