Nordkinnhalvøya

Nordkinnhalvøya (English: Nordkinn Peninsula; Northern Sami: Čorgašnjárga) is a peninsula in Finnmark county, Norway. It is the northernmost part of mainland Europe. The peninsula is shared between Lebesby Municipality and Gamvik Municipality (and a small part of Tana Municipality is located along the base of the peninsula). Human settlement is mostly concentrated on the northern shores and at the base of the peninsula, while the middle parts of the peninsula are sparsely inhabited. The main villages on the peninsula are Mehamn, Gamvik, and Kjøllefjord—all located on the northern shore. Slettnes Lighthouse near Gamvik is the northernmost lighthouse on mainland Europe.

The world's northernmost labyrinth is located on the peninsula; the labyrinths in Finnmark were created in the period 1200–1500.
