Water Activities & Scenic Sailing with Scandinavian Yachters in Bergen

Duration: 2 Hours. Please call to book if you require a longer Private Tour

About

On your request we can organize private trips lasting anything from 3-4 hours, preferably in the afternoon. Whole day trips are also possible. We can also arrange for fresh prawns or other seafood to be served aboard as we moor in a small sheltered bay. Alternatively we may stop at a nice local seafood restaurant for a prearranged meal. We will mostly go by sail if that is to the guests’ liking and the guests may also use the onboard fishing rods. Please also note that the guests will probably not run into, or see, other tourists during the cruise!

After showing you the “ins and outs” of the boat you get light weight inflatable life jackets to wear before we head to Florvåg, central Askøy.

Then we head south to the small village of Strusshamn boasting long maritime traditions and former quarantine harbour for the city of Bergen.

From Strusshamn we continue South and return North passing the southernmost tip of Askøy. We are now heading to Skorpo, an island regulated for leisure by the municipality of Askøy Swimming is permitted: After swimming we could stop at an island, Færøyna just south of Skorpo where a path leads to an old, German observation post from the second world war Time permitting, turn southeast and head for “Alvøen”, a little village known for its gunpowder production in the 1620-ies and later its paper factory producing paper for Norwegian banknotes
