Catamaran sailing trip in the archipelago

Catamaran Sailing Trip in the Archipelago

Join a comfortable sailing catamaran and explore the unique archipelago of Færder as we sail between islands and skerries, finding our own peaceful spot by the open sea.

The experience is ideal for small groups looking for something a little different, whether it is friends, companies or bachelor and bachelorette parties, with easy access from both Tønsberg and Oslo.

A catamaran offers a stable and comfortable ride with plenty of space to relax and take in the surroundings. The trip can be tailored to the group, whether you want to explore the archipelago, stop for a swim or simply enjoy a peaceful day at sea.
