The landscape and sea views are breathtaking travelling to the centre. They have just finished 4 new lodges. Everything is immaculate. Great harbour view. Private veranda. Afternoon staying at five different hotels lodges on our trip to tromso. This was the best. We really did not want to go. And if you have time the two day bodo trip is amazing.

Bryggen Hanseatic Wharf

Reviewed By lobstaluva - Springfield, United States

We spent a couple of days in Bergen and loved every minute of this charming city. The colorful facades of the wooden buildings facing the water are first to catch your eye. They are shops, restaurants and cafes (excellent ice cream shop). Between some of these buildings are narrow alleyways that lead you back to interesting places. Here you will see artisans at work, odd architecture, crafts to purchase. Continue walking along the water past these colorful buildings and you will come to the Bryggen Museum and St Mary’s church up a small hill on the right. Walk around the end of the harbor and to the other side to see the fish market section. There is every kind of edible sea creature imaginable, some uniquely displayed. There are several open air restaurants..... we ate at Fish Me and had delicious king crab. There is a visitor center, lots of boats to check out, shops, cafes and activity. Plan to spend a couple of hours just walking around soaking up the culture.

Hemmestad Wharf

There lies a yellow pearl by the sea at Hemmestad. Time has stood still here for almost 200 years. History is everywhere. The store, the cod liver barrel and the nordlandsboat that bathe in the sun on the pebble beach, help to create a magical feeling from days gone by. Today the trading post is a museum where the old building on the wharf stands intact with shop, post office, store and museum exhibitions. Opening hours 23.06.-14.06.2011: Tuesday – Thursday 10:00 – 16:00 Saturday and Sunday 11:00 – 17:00 Off-season by appointment.

Isegran

The peninsula’s history is thought to have started with small fortifications which were built during the 13th century. Until 1680 Isegran was Norway’s only sea based military harbour. At Isegran you will find the Fredrikstad museum where many exhibitions are held. From Cafè Galeien you can take in the beautiful view of Gamlebyen (The Old Town) and Vaterland in the south. Here you will find a maritime centre which builds and restores wooden boats.

Brygga i Toensberg

"Brygga"is the main street in the summer town Tønsberg. The channel through the city has a long history that goes back to before the 1200s. There has been full active for over 1000 of years.

Reviewed By 982ullag - Sitio de Calahonda, Spain

This is an excellent place to visit to stroll, look at the boats, see people and of course have a drink or a meal. It is highly reccomended in summer, in spring or fall when the sun is out, or even in winter to experience the cozy ambience. In summer the sun will set over the low hills to the northwest, quite late in the eveneing. So come and experience the long summer evenings like a Scandinavian. It is also buzzing for lunch. Scandinavians will jump at any excuse to sit outside in the sun! A lot of them bring friends for a "halvliter", a pint, but my husband and I usually settle for sparkling water and coca-cola, and a light meal. If you are quite young, and perhaps single, the action starts late.. after 10PM, but people of all ages go there for a drink and a meal in the early evening any day of the week. As we are an older couple, we prefer to head for home before 11, especially on Fridays and Saturdays. That is when the young crowd turn out in droves. If you are boating there are many berths, both along the quay and a little furter up where there is a little marina with many berths and shower and WC facilities. I have no idea what it costs these days.. There should be a sign or two. Someone will show up to take your money. :-) If you moor along the quay on the weekend, don't expect to have a good nights sleep. In summer that is party-time! The busiest season in Norway is medio June until medio August. In August it CAN start to be a little chilly at night .. or you can experience a Norwegian heatwave .. you never know!

Oslo's Harbour Promenade

Reviewed By 848BreN2 - Ames, United States

My Air BNB was in Sorenga, and I enjoyed walking the promenade so to get to the City Hall area, Aker Brygge, or just about anywhere I was walking various parts of the promenade (especially the Opera House section ... like 8x a day lol). Very refreshing, even in the elements (it snowed and rained while I was here in March).

Moloen

Reviewed By Nesher2010 - Tel Aviv, Israel

Moloen is a concrete breakwater built in 1904 and renovated in 1980. Walk along to its farthermost point to observe the city and the sea, and to meet ships entering and exiting the harbour. On some occasions, when a ferry or big sail ship arrives, a cannon in Nyholms Fort fires a salute.

Fish Market

Reviewed By JeanneJ739

We walked through 3 times in our day in Bergen at different times. Great displays including monkfish (ugly), smoked whale meat (we had a taste), live king crabs and lobsters, sea urchins and much more. Behind the counters of fish were tables that got busy around lunch time. You could get a variety of seafood sandwiches, a variety of hot seafood, whale burgers, paella, reindeer sausage, etc. fresh berries of many kinds made beautiful displays at each end of tge market.
