The serenity of the room is only punctuated by the soft, lapping sounds of the shimmering water outside of the North Atlantic. Welcome to <strong>Under<\/strong>&#8230; Europe\u2019s largest restaurant that sits below the sea surface in <strong>Lindesnes.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>To call Under just a restaurant is an oversimplification, a near injustice. It is an experience that treats guests to the many marvels of the Norwegian marine system; a rare glimpse of the icy North Atlantic Sea. A space where fresh seafood spiced with bold flavours offer a new-age cuisine.<br \/>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_17625\"

minimalist majesty of the ocean. An oak-clad foyer welcomes guests as they transition from the hard land surface to the soft underbelly of the sea with textile-clad panels greeting them on the descending stairway.<\/p>\n<p>Inside the restaurant, large acrylic windows open to a mesmerising view of the icy blue waters. The interior creates a warm ambience with wood-panelled walls and turquoise motifs. Under pays homage to the vibrant marine ecosystem with a unique restaurant experience. <em><a href=\"https:\/\/under.no\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">under.no<\/a> \u25fc<br \/>\n<\/em>[\/vc_column_text][vc_basic_grid post_type=&#8221;ids&#8221; element_width=&#8221;12&#8243; initial_loading_animation=&#8221;none&#8221; grid_id=&#8221;vc_gid:1562843996738-37ee4030-731e-5&#8243; include=&#8221;17456&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wtravelmagazine.com\/subscribe\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><em>Subscribe to the latest edition now by clicking here.<\/em><\/a><\/span><br \/>\n<!-- Error, Advert is not available at this time due to schedule\/geolocation restrictions! --><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #808080;\"><strong><em>\u00a9 This article was first published in June-July 2019 edition of World Travel Magazine.<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #808080;\"><em>If you would like to comment on this story or anything else you have seen on World Travel Magazine, head over to our <a style=\"color: #808080;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/WTravelMagazine\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Facebook<\/a> page or message us on <a style=\"color: #808080;\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/WTravelMagazine\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Twitter<\/a>.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #808080;\"><em>And if you liked this story, <a style=\"color: #808080;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wtravelmagazine.com\/subscribe\/\">subscribe to our bi-monthly World Travel Magazine<\/a>, a handpicked selection of editorial features and stories from Global Destinations, Inspire Me, Insider, Style File, Wellness &amp; Travel, City Travel, Suite Life, At Leisure, Short Breaks and much more.<\/em><\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_masonry_grid post_type=&#8221;post&#8221; max_items=&#8221;9&#8243; style=&#8221;load-more&#8221; items_per_page=&#8221;9&#8243; gap=&#8221;10&#8243; grid_id=&#8221;vc_gid:1562843996741-ba8385ae-b04e-0&#8243; taxonomies=&#8221;701&#8243; exclude=&#8221;15205, 14466, 11296&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bathed in a blue halo, the carved chairs and table sit next to a large, transparent window.
