Fish tale

The Atlantic halibut is the biggest flatfish in the world, longer than a goalkeeper is tall. It lives in the cold sea off Canada, whose women won Olympic gold at the Tokyo Games.

Island story

On Futbol Island the atlantic halibut can be caught at:

  • Sunset Shoals: Shallow sandy shoals on the south-west shore, south of the stadium, where the sun sets over the sea. Flatfish lie hidden in the sand, crabs scuttle about, and leopard sharks glide over the shallows.

Size on the island: 100–250 cm.
