The southernmost of the Western Fjord counties, Rogaland is also home to many beautiful beaches and islands. Of the area’s fjords, Lysefjord is the most famous, its 25 magnificent miles marked by narrow passages along steep vertical drops. Preikestolen, Rogaland’s most visited attraction, is a breathtaking cliff nearly 2,000 feet above the water. Kjeragbolten, a huge boulder wedged in a mountain crevasse, is another Lysefjord highlight. Cruises begin at Stavenger, the area’s biggest town.

"Boat life – it is pure bliss. For few people, there's nothing like a day on the water with friends and family, relaxing with the sun shining and cold beverages but for me boats have been a part of my life for last 32 years not only for leisure but for my daily travel. Yes, I grew up in an island. When I was a kid, I always dreamed about going to far-off places in that boat and with those dreams in my eyes, with my passion for boats and love for travel, is what gave birth to Gosta in 2017.

A Dynamic Museum for a Dynamic IndustryNorwegian Petroleum Museum is a museum for everyone. Its exhibits explain how oil and gas are created, disovered and produced, and what they are used for. The museum also provides informastion about technological advances and the way petroleum influences Norwegian society. Original objects, models, films and interactive exhibits illustrate everything from everyday life offshore to technology and dramatic incidents. The curious cat Petro serves as a guide through the museum's science centre.The museum was designed by architects Lunde & Løvseth, and is an attraction in itself. Its architecture is a scenographic interpretation of the Norwegian bedrock, the open coastal landscape and the offshore oil installations. Architechtural reviews have said that there is hardly a building in Norway which signals its function as obviously as the Norwegian Petroleum Museum. The museum was opened in 1999.
An absolut worthy venue to spend some hours if you are in Stavanger. A historical journey through the oil exploration in Norway and Scandinavia, which shows the troubled road from the very first endeavours to today modern platforms. Amazing setup, with show rooms and videos, even things you can try on your own, so live and near that you almost feel being there for real.

A canning museum would not normally be our family's first choice for fun things to do on a vacation; however, this place had excellent reviews and almost everyone said the same thing: surprisingly enjoyable. And it was!!! My husband and I enjoyed learning the history of the canning factory, but our kids LOVED this place! They loved seeing all the machines and learning how they worked, they loved the arts and crafts station upstairs, but they especially loved practicing canning with the rubber fish! And they decided to spend their own money to buy rubber fish and cans to bring home as souvenirs. We visited almost a year ago, and the canning museum is still remembered as a highlight of our trip (and the souvenirs are still played with regularly, too!) Thank you! :)
