'''Gjesværstappan''' is a group of high, steep-sided, grass-covered islands which are located north of the island village of [[Gjesvær]] in [[Nordkapp Municipality]] in [[Finnmark]] county, [[Norway]].
Storstappan rises to a height of {{convert|283|m}} above sea level and has a peninsula called ''Stauren'' that rises to {{convert|165|m}}.
==Nature reserve==
The islands contain a large colony of [[seabird]]s and have been designated a nature reserve since 1983, as well as being an [[Important Bird Area]] (IBA). The land area of the reserve is {{convert|1.7|km2}}, but the reserve also includes {{convert|5.5|km2}} of the sea surrounding the islands.
The largest colonies of cliff-breeding seabirds are mainly located on the [[bird cliff]]s of the biggest island, Storstappen, and between June 15 and August 15 visitors are not allowed to set foot on this island.<ref name="Grimmett">{{cite book|first1=R. F. A.|last1=Grimmett|first2=T. A.|last2=Jones|url=
The colony is regarded as important because of the large numbers of birds.
